Compare Source

Patch Changes

• Reject pnpm-lock.yaml entries whose remote tarball resolution: block is missing the integrity field. Previously the worker that extracts a downloaded tarball skipped hash verification when no integrity was supplied and minted a fresh one from the unverified bytes, so an attacker who could both alter the lockfile (e.g. via a pull request that strips integrity:) and serve modified content at the referenced tarball URL could install a tampered package without any error — including under --frozen-lockfile. pnpm now fails closed at lockfile-read time with ERR_PNPM_MISSING_TARBALL_INTEGRITY. Git-hosted tarballs (gitHosted: true or a URL on codeload.github.com / bitbucket.org / gitlab.com) and file: tarballs are exempt — the commit SHA in a git-host URL and the user-controlled local path already anchor the bytes.

v10.34.0: pnpm 10.34

Minor Changes

• Treat tarball-integrity mismatches against the lockfile as a hard failure by default. Previously, pnpm install (non-frozen) would log ERR_PNPM_TARBALL_INTEGRITY, silently re-resolve from the registry, and overwrite the locked integrity — which meant a compromised registry, proxy, or republished version could substitute attacker-controlled content on a clean machine even though the project shipped a committed lockfile.

  pnpm install now exits with ERR_PNPM_TARBALL_INTEGRITY and a hint pointing at the new opt-in flag.

  The only opt-in is pnpm install --update-checksums — narrowly scoped to refreshing the locked integrity values from what the registry currently serves. Mirrors yarn's flag of the same name. A warning still prints when the bypass takes effect so the operation is auditable.

  --force and pnpm update deliberately do not bypass the integrity check. They are routine refresh operations; silently overwriting a locked integrity in those flows would erase the protection a committed lockfile is supposed to provide. --frozen-lockfile behavior is unchanged. --fix-lockfile keeps its documented purpose (filling in missing lockfile entries) and is also not a bypass.

Patch Changes

• Pin unscoped per-registry settings (_authToken, _auth, username/_password, tokenHelper, inline cert/key) to the registry declared in the same config source at load time, so a later layer overriding registry= (workspace .npmrc, pnpm-workspace.yaml, CLI --registry) cannot redirect a credential or client certificate authored for a different host. A deprecation warning is emitted whenever an unscoped per-registry setting is encountered, naming the source and the URL it was pinned to. Reported by JUNYI LIU.
• Fixed minimumReleaseAge handling when cached metadata is abbreviated. The npm registry returns abbreviated package metadata (without the per-version time field) by default, which made the maturity check throw ERR_PNPM_MISSING_TIME whenever cached abbreviated metadata was reused. pnpm now upgrades cached abbreviated metadata to the full document via a follow-up fetch when minimumReleaseAge is active, persists the upgrade to the on-disk cache so subsequent installs skip the extra fetch, and lets ERR_PNPM_MISSING_TIME from the cache fast-path fall through to the network fetch even under strict mode.
• Reject git resolutions whose commit field is not a 40-character hexadecimal SHA before invoking git. A malicious lockfile could otherwise smuggle a value such as --upload-pack=<command> through git fetch / git checkout, which on SSH or local-file transports executes the supplied command.
• Reject patch files whose diff --git headers reference paths outside the patched package directory. Previously a malicious .patch file added via a pull request could write, delete, or rename arbitrary files reachable by the user running pnpm install.
• Fixed --prefix=<dir> not being honored when locating the workspace root. The --prefix → dir rename was applied after workspace detection, so workspace settings declared in <dir>/pnpm-workspace.yaml were not loaded when pnpm was invoked from outside <dir> #​11535.
• Reject dependency aliases that contain path-traversal segments (such as @x/../../../../../.git/hooks) when reading them from a package manifest or symlinking them into node_modules. A malicious registry package could otherwise use a transitive dependency key to make pnpm install create symlinks at attacker-chosen paths outside the intended node_modules directory.

v10.33.4: pnpm 10.33.4

Compare Source

Patch Changes

• Pin the integrity of git-hosted tarballs (codeload.github.com, gitlab.com, bitbucket.org) in the lockfile so that subsequent installs detect a tampered or substituted tarball and refuse to install it. Previously the lockfile only stored the tarball URL for git dependencies, so a compromised git host or a man-in-the-middle could serve arbitrary code on later installs without lockfile changes.

  A new gitHosted: true field is recorded on git-hosted tarball resolutions in the lockfile, letting every reader/writer route them by a single typed check instead of pattern-matching the tarball URL in each call site. Lockfiles written by older pnpm versions are enriched on load (URL fallback) so the field can be relied on uniformly across the codebase.

• Fix a regression where pnpm --recursive --filter '!<pkg>' run/exec/test/add would include the workspace root in the matched projects. The workspace root is now correctly excluded by default when only negative --filter arguments are provided, matching the documented behavior. To include the root, pass --include-workspace-root #​11341.

v10.33.1: pnpm 10.33.1

Patch Changes

• When a project's packageManager field selects pnpm v11 or newer, commands that v10 would have passed through to npm (version, login, logout, publish, unpublish, deprecate, dist-tag, docs, ping, search, star, stars, unstar, whoami, etc.) are now handed over to the wanted pnpm, which implements them natively. Previously they silently shelled out to npm — making, for example, pnpm version --help print npm's help on a project with packageManager: pnpm@11.0.0-rc.3 #​11328.

Patch Changes

• Fix a regression where pnpm-workspace.yaml without a packages field caused all directories to be treated as workspace projects. This broke projects that use pnpm-workspace.yaml only for settings (e.g. minimumReleaseAge) without defining workspace packages #​10909.
