Root Cause Analysis
- Multiple sources (GitHub Advisory, Snyk, NVD) explicitly name a.getProcessPortId as the injection vector
- The provided PoC demonstrates command injection through this function's parameter
- The package's purpose (killing processes by port) inherently requires executing system commands
- CWE-77 classification confirms improper neutralization in command execution
- Lack of path information is offset by clear function identification in vulnerability descriptions
