az aks check-acr

Description
The aks_check_acr() function constructs a shell command using an f-string that interpolates browse_path (from tempfile.mkstemp()) and passes it to subprocess.Popen(..., shell=True). This is vulnerable to command injection when TMPDIR/TMP/TEMP contains shell metacharacters, and breaks on Windows when the user's path contains spaces (e.g. C:\Users\John Smith\...).

Convert the string-based shell command to a safe argument list with shell=False (the default), consistent with the existing kubectl run call later in the same function.

The git hooks are available for azure-cli and azure-cli-extensions repos. They could help you run required checks before creating the PR.

Please sync the latest code with latest dev branch (for azure-cli) or main branch (for azure-cli-extensions).
After that please run the following commands to enable git hooks:

pip install azdev --upgrade
azdev setup -c <your azure-cli repo path> -r <your azure-cli-extensions repo path>

Pull request overview

This PR hardens az aks check-acr against command injection and path/quoting issues by changing how kubectl version is invoked, aligning it with the safer kubectl run invocation style already used in the same function.

Changes:

  • Replace a string-based kubectl version ... shell command with an argv list (shell=False) to prevent command injection via temp-path interpolation.
  • Improve cross-platform correctness (notably Windows paths with spaces) by avoiding shell parsing.
