… utils This commit addresses a potential command injection vulnerability by replacing `child_process.exec` (via `execAsync`) with `child_process.execFile` (via `execFileAsync`) when executing shell commands. Specifically: - In `out/utils/git.js`, `isGitRepo` and `getCurrentBranch` now use `execFileAsync` with argument arrays. - In `out/antigravityClient/discovery.js`, the `execCommand` helper now always uses `execFileAsync`. - All `execAsync` definitions have been removed from these files to prevent future insecure usage. Verification: - Created custom Node.js test scripts using `child_process` mocks to ensure commands are executed with the correct arguments and that `execFile` is used instead of `exec`. - Verified that the logic still works as expected across simulated platforms.

🎯 What: The vulnerability fixed is the use of
child_process.execfor executing shell commands, which is susceptible to command injection if arguments are not properly sanitized. This was replaced withchild_process.execFile.🛡️ Solution: By using
execFileand passing arguments as an array, the OS treats the arguments as data rather than shell tokens, effectively neutralizing command injection attacks. All instances ofexecAsyncinout/utils/git.jsandout/antigravityClient/discovery.jswere replaced.PR created automatically by Jules for task 8107190670202250280 started by @alexj11324
