[4.0] nuxt upgrade in Windows displays "DEP0190" error #1613

Open

Description

@Smart-Ace-Designs

On Windows OS with Node 24.21, I run bunx nuxt upgrade or npx nuxt upgrade I receive the following error message:

ERROR (node:15012) [DEP0190] DeprecationWarning: Passing args to a child process with shell option true can lead to security vulnerabilities, as the arguments are not escaped, only concatenated.

Workaround: Use "--disable-warning=DEP0190" to suppress the warning.

This appears to have started with Nuxt CLI 4.x as I don't recall previous versions displaying this error message recently. I don't see this message on a Linux OS.

Thank you.
