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 · unedited
mcp-server-siri-shortcuts shortcutName Command Injection Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of mcp-server-siri-shortcuts. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the shortcutName parameter. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of the service account. Was ZDI-CAN-27910.

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 · moderate confidence

Command injection vulnerability in the shortcutName parameter of mcp-server-siri-shortcuts. The application passes user-supplied input directly to a system call without validation, allowing injection of shell commands. An attacker with low-privileged code execution can exploit this to escalate to service account privileges and execute arbitrary code.

MitigationImplement strict input validation/sanitization on the shortcutName parameter and refactor to use safe APIs or parameterized commands instead of direct system calls with user input.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if mcp-server-siri-shortcuts is installed
    Search for the package in node_modules, check for running processes named mcp-server-siri-shortcuts, or look for service definitions. Common locations: npm list -g | grep mcp, or ps aux | grep siri-shortcuts
    Affected if The product is present in the environment
  2. Determine the installed version
    Run npm list mcp-server-siri-shortcuts, check package.json dependencies, or query the service version if it exposes a --version flag
    Affected if Unable to verify version against any fixed releases or version comparison shows it exists
  3. Locate the code handling the shortcutName parameter
    Search source code for the shortcutName parameter handling. Look for files in the mcp-server-siri-shortcuts package that handle this parameter, typically in route handlers or command processing functions
    Affected if The code that processes shortcutName is found in the codebase
  4. Inspect for vulnerable system call pattern
    Examine the code handling shortcutName for direct system() or exec() calls with unsanitized input. Search for patterns like system(shortcutName), exec("..." + shortcutName), or child_process calls without input sanitization
    Affected if User-supplied shortcutName parameter is passed directly to a shell execution function without validation or escaping
  5. Verify if external input can reach the vulnerable function
    Check API endpoints, CLI interfaces, or IPC mechanisms that accept shortcutName input. Determine if these interfaces are accessible to low-privileged users or external attackers
    Affected if The shortcutName parameter accepts input from untrusted sources (user HTTP parameters, CLI arguments, or external processes)

User is affected if mcp-server-siri-shortcuts is installed and the shortcutName parameter accepts untrusted input that flows to unsanitized system calls in the code.
