SCA: security update for pnpm (GHSA-q6j5-fjx5-2mc3)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444046

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - pnpm is a package manager. Prior to 10.34.0 and 11.4.0, pnpm's tarball extraction worker skips integrity
 verification when the integrity field is absent from the lockfile resolution. If an attacker can both
 modify pnpm-lock.yaml to remove the integrity: field and cause the referenced registry URL to serve
 altered package content, pnpm install --frozen-lockfile can install the altered package without an
 integrity error. npm's npm ci enforces integrity by default; pnpm's behavior of silently skipping
 verification is a pnpm-specific fail-open gap. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.34.0 and 11.4.0.
 (CVE-2026-50021)

Solution

Update the pnpm library and its related packages to version 10.34.1 or later.
