Command Injection in FRI Server /contribute Endpoint #261

Description

@GaneshPatil7517

@pradeeban
File: fri/server/main.py
Severity: CRITICAL

The /contribute endpoint passes user-supplied JSON directly to subprocess.check_output() with shell=True:

proc = check_output(["contribute", STUDY_NAME, BRANCH_NAME, PR_BODY], 
                     cwd=concore_path, shell=True)

An attacker can send {"branch": "main & rm -rf /"} to execute arbitrary system commands on the server. The /library endpoint has the same vulnerability.
