Echo: pnpm: security update to 10.34.2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461793

Description

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

- pnpm is a package manager. Prior to 10.34.2 and 11.5.3, pnpm can install configDependencies declared in
pnpm-workspace.yaml before command dispatch. Before the patch, a repository could declare pacquet or
@pnpm/pacquet as a config dependency and pnpm treated that repository-controlled dependency as an install-
engine opt-in. During install, pnpm resolved a platform-specific @pacquet/<platform>-<arch>/pacquet binary
from node_modules/.pnpm-config/<packageName> and spawned it as the developer or CI user. This
vulnerability is fixed in 10.34.2 and 11.5.3. (CVE-2026-55697)

Solution

Update the pnpm library and its related packages to version 10.34.2 or later.
