Seems like the description was cut off. Mind updating that? It's not immediately clear to me how a user input could end up here. |

I've raised another PR [1] for the same finding with a full description. So closing this out. |

Summary
Fix high severity security issue in
scripts/rtl_ltr_linter.py.Vulnerability
V-001scripts/rtl_ltr_linter.py:426Description: The rtl_ltr_linter.py script executes subprocess.check_output at line 426 to run diff commands. If user-controlled input (file paths or command arguments from CLI interfaces at lines 462 and 604) is passed to subprocess without proper sanitisation and with shell=True enabled, attackers can inject shell metacharacters to execute arbitrary system commands. This vulnerability allows complete bypass of application logic and direct interaction with the underlying operating system.
