We determined that this vulnerability can not be exploited in our products, as npm have additional protection against all links while using node-tar. Here is upstream npm bugs that are both closed with same explanation(not affected): https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/8922 https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/8917 Additionally here is part of npm source code that does said protection: https://github.com/npm/cli/blob/f8d25cd00132c8c7798a3f982a8da38ceed81e6b/node_modules/pacote/lib/fetcher.js#L421 |
