It's always cute to find new vectors for command injection. Really anytime you mix data and commands this type of crap is bound to happen (ex: sql injection).
Still not as worrisome to me as the full scripts that get executed by package managers when you install dependencies. Effectively every time you run something like "npm install" you're putting your faith in the entire tree of ancestor dependencies as any of them could have a pwnage script as a post install.
