DescriptionCVE.org

pnpm is a package manager. Prior to 10.34.5 and 11.11.0, pnpm accepts a scoped path traversal in a tarball dependency's package.json manifest name because pnpm11/resolving/npm-resolver/src/pickPackage.ts rejects slash characters only for unscoped names. During pnpm install, the unvalidated name reaches raw path joins in pnpm11/installing/deps-resolver/src/resolvePeers.ts, pnpm11/installing/deps-resolver/src/index.ts, and pnpm11/deps/graph-builder/src/lockfileToDepGraph.ts, causing package extraction outside node_modules and allowing attacker-controlled files to overwrite arbitrary filesystem paths even when --ignore-scripts is used. The overwrite can replace shell startup files, Git hooks, or installed package code and lead to code execution. This issue is fixed in versions 10.34.5, and 11.11.0.

AnalysisAI

Scoped path traversal in pnpm allows arbitrary filesystem overwrites during package installation, defeating the --ignore-scripts safety flag entirely. Affected are pnpm v10 before 10.34.5 and v11 before 11.11.0: the package manager's name validation in pickPackage.ts rejects slash characters only for unscoped package names, permitting a scoped name such as @evil/../../../home/user/.bashrc to pass unchecked into raw path joins across three resolver modules and extract package content to any attacker-controlled path. …
