The command that the shell should execute. Do not use untrusted strings such as CALLERID(num) or CALLERID(name) as part of the command parameters. You risk a command injection attack executing arbitrary commands if the untrusted strings aren't filtered to remove dangerous characters. See function FILTER(). Collects the output generated by a command executed by the system shell Example: Set(foo=${SHELL(echo bar)}) The command supplied to this function will be executed by the system's shell, typically specified in the SHELL environment variable. There are many different system shells available with somewhat different behaviors, so the output generated by this function may vary between platforms. If live_dangerously in asterisk.conf is set to no, this function can only be executed from the dialplan, and not directly from external protocols. ***/ static struct ast_custom_function shell_function = { .name = "SHELL", .read = shell_helper, }; static int unload_module(void) { return ast_custom_function_unregister(&shell_function); } static int load_module(void) { return ast_custom_function_register_escalating(&shell_function, AST_CFE_READ); } AST_MODULE_INFO_STANDARD(ASTERISK_GPL_KEY, "Collects the output generated by a command executed by the system shell");
