I am developing a web page where i have to display the files list based on some search criteria and of certain duration. My web server is on linux
operating system. The command i am using for this peropse is:

find /home/test -mtime -$duration | sort | xargs grep -l "$search_criteria"

Is any malicious user can use the search criteria to perform some bad
commands in the operating system.

If it is then please suggest how to prevent it.
