Use execFileSync to launch child process#790
Merged
Conversation
This uses `child_process.execFileSync` instead of `execSync` to launch the child process. This further reduces the attack surface, removing a possible point for command injection in the ShellJS implementation. This does not affect backwards compatibility for the `shell.exec` API (the behavior is determined by the call to `child_process.exec` within `src/exec-child.js`). Issue #782
