Summary
JS Recon: Command injection in PR Branch Checker workflow via untrusted pull request context values
Details

JS Recon is a JavaScript enumeration and SAST tool. From 1.2.1-beta.1 until 1.3.1-beta.2, the PR Branch Checker workflow in .github/workflows/prchecker.yml places github.headref and github.event.pullrequest.head.repo.fullname into BRANCHNAME and SOURCEREPO and interpolates those untrusted values into a shell gh pr comment command. A remote user who opens a pull request can use shell metacharacters in a branch or fork name to execute commands in the GitHub Actions runner with the workflow's GITHUB_TOKEN, which has pull-requests write permission. This issue is fixed in version 1.3.1-beta.2.
