    CVE-2025-11953 (GCVE-0-2025-11953)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-11-03 16:35 – Updated: 2026-02-26 17:47
    VLAI CISA KEVIntel
    Title
    Command injection in React Native Community CLI allows remote attackers to perform remote code execution by sending HTTP requests
    Summary
    The Metro Development Server, which is opened by the React Native Community CLI, binds to external interfaces by default. The server exposes an endpoint that is vulnerable to OS command injection. This allows unauthenticated network attackers to send a POST request to the server and run arbitrary executables. On Windows, the attackers can also execute arbitrary shell commands with fully controlled arguments.
