CVE-2024-14010
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedTypora 1.7.4 contains a command injection vulnerability in the PDF export preferences that allows attackers to execute arbitrary system commands. Attackers can inject malicious commands into the 'run command' input field during PDF export to achieve remote code execution.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceTypora 1.7.4 contains a command injection vulnerability in the PDF export preferences. Attackers can inject malicious system commands through the 'run command' input field during PDF export, leading to arbitrary command execution and potential remote code execution on the affected system.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Typora installationCheck if Typora application is present on the system by searching for the executable in common installation directories (e.g., Program Files on Windows, Applications folder on macOS, or via package manager on Linux)Affected if Typora is installed on the system
-
Determine installed versionOpen Typora and navigate to Help > About, or check the application metadata file, to identify the exact version numberAffected if The installed version matches 1.7.4 or falls within the affected range without a patch
-
Confirm PDF export feature accessibilityAttempt to access the PDF export function by opening a document and selecting File > Export > PDF, or using the keyboard shortcut if applicableAffected if The PDF export feature is available and functional for the user
-
Inspect PDF export preferencesWithin the PDF export dialog, locate the preferences or settings area where custom commands can be specified - specifically look for any 'run command' or similar input field related to PDF exportAffected if The 'run command' input field exists in the PDF export preferences, allowing user-supplied command strings
A user is affected if Typora version 1.7.4 (or an unpatched version) is installed and the PDF export feature with its custom run command capability is accessible to users who could supply malicious input.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade to a patched version of Typora that addresses this vulnerability. Until then, avoid using the PDF export feature with untrusted input or third-party content, and restrict user access to the application.
