[Security] Bump codecov from 3.6.5 to 3.7.1

Hannes Heine requested to merge dependabot/npm_and_yarn/codecov-3.7.1 into master

Created by: dependabot-preview[bot]

Bumps codecov from 3.6.5 to 3.7.1. This update includes a security fix.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The GitHub Security Advisory Database.

Command injection in codecov (npm package)

Impact

The upload method has a command injection vulnerability. Clients of the codecov-node library are unlikely to be aware of this, so they might unwittingly write code that contains a vulnerability.

A similar CVE was issued: CVE-2020-7597, but the fix was incomplete. It only blocked &, and command injection is still possible using backticks instead to bypass the sanitizer.

We have written a CodeQL query, which automatically detects this vulnerability. You can see the results of the query on the codecov-node project here.

Patches

3.7.1

Workarounds

None, however, the attack surface is low in this case. Particularly in the standard use of codecov, where the module is used directly in a build pipeline, not built against as a library in another application that may supply malicious input and perform command injection.
