Versions 10.0.0 through 10.25 allow git-hosted dependencies to execute arbitrary code during pnpm install, circumventing the v10 security feature \"Dependency lifecycle scripts execution disabled by default\". While pnpm v10 blocks postinstall scripts via the onlyBuiltDependencies mechanism, git dependencies can still execute prepare, prepublish, and prepack scripts during the fetch phase, enabling remote code execution without user consent or approval. This issue is fixed in version 10.26.0.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `pnpm >= 10.0.0, < 10.26.0`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade past the affected range:\n\n- `pnpm 10.26.0`\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · updated 2026-09-12 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2025/cve-2025-69264.json)","depth":"midnight","depthScore":61,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":48.4,"likelihood":0.2,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":201422,"id":"CVE-2025-69264","ts":1789399448123,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"},{"seq":200157,"id":"CVE-2025-69264","ts":1789396900150,"field":"exploit_available","old":"true","new":"false"},{"seq":199320,"id":"CVE-2025-69264","ts":1789395379355,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"}]}
