Super Productivity is an advanced todo list app with integrated timeboxing and time tracking capabilities. Prior to 18.13.0, the EXEC IPC handler in electron/ipc-handlers/exec.ts accepts a command string from the renderer through the IPC.EXEC channel and executes it with child_process.exec(). The electron/preload.ts bridge exposes window.ea.exec() to renderer code, including community plugins executed with new Function(), without requiring nodeExecution permission. A confirmation dialog protects only the first execution, its persistence checkbox is selected by default, and approved commands are stored in the ALLOWED_COMMANDS value in simpleSettings for silent later execution with the desktop account's privileges. This issue is fixed in version 18.13.0.
