CVE-2013-7381

libnotify before 1.0.4 for Node.js allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via unspecified characters in a call to libnotify.notify.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
