Attacker needs local influence over env vars and a planted helper file (AV:L, PR:L), no user interaction, and shell execution yields full host CIA impact.

DescriptionNVD

pnpm is a package manager. Versions 6.25.0 through 10.26.2 have a Command Injection vulnerability when using environment variable substitution in .npmrc configuration files with tokenHelper settings. An attacker who can control environment variables during pnpm operations could achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) in build environments. This issue is fixed in version 10.27.0.

AnalysisAI

Command injection in pnpm versions 6.25.0 through 10.26.2 allows attackers controlling environment variables to execute arbitrary commands via tokenHelper settings in .npmrc, potentially leading to RCE in build environments. Public proof-of-concept exploit exists, but no known active exploitation; EPSS score indicates low exploitation probability.
