The Indexed Search Engine (indexed_search) system extension in TYPO3 4.0.0 through 4.0.9, 4.1.0 through 4.1.7, and 4.2.0 through 4.2.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted filename containing shell metacharacters, which is not properly handled by the command-line indexer.
Is GHSA-74w6-ww7w-45j9 in any of your client repos?
Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected typo3/cms, and gives you the command that fixes it.
