Problem

In Tauri beta app, I've been using a curl command via the Command.create shell plugin which was working fine until Tuesday afternoon when it randomly stopped.

The return value suddenly started becoming this with a 200 response:

{"String":"  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current\n                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed\n\r  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0\r  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0\r100  226k    0  226k    0     0   322k      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--  322k\n","code":0,"signal":null}

Context

Here is the setup I have. Unfortunately, I cannot provide a duplication due to copyrights around the private code base.

default.json permission:

{
 "permissions": [
   {
      "identifier": "shell:allow-execute",
      "allow": [
        {
          "name": "exec-curl",
          "cmd": "curl",
          "args": [
            {
              "validator": "\\S+"
            }
          ],
          "sidecar": false
        }
      ]
    }
 ]
}

JS:

const result: string = await Command.create('exec-curl', 'https://some.website');
const { data } = JSON.parse(result);
