CVE-2021-43616 - High Severity Vulnerability

Vulnerable Library - npm-7.24.2.tgz

a package manager for JavaScript

Library home page: https://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/npm-7.24.2.tgz

Path to dependency file: typescript-tools/package.json

Path to vulnerable library: typescript-tools/node_modules/npm/package.json

Dependency Hierarchy:

• npm-7.1.3.tgz (Root Library)
  • ❌ npm-7.24.2.tgz (Vulnerable Library)

Found in HEAD commit: 8e5d05de2ac16841a6dbc5cf06d9415f512370ac

Vulnerability Details

The npm ci command in npm 7.x and 8.x through 8.1.3 proceeds with an installation even if dependency information in package-lock.json differs from package.json. This behavior is inconsistent with the documentation, and makes it easier for attackers to install malware that was supposed to have been blocked by an exact version match requirement in package-lock.json.
