<!-- maintainer-action:start --> ## Maintainer Action Plan This report is ready to review with the shared patch branch. Start with the PR and the expected fixed behavior, then use the detailed exploit narrative below only if you want to replay the original path. - Advisory: `CAND-PNPM-097` / `GHSA-gj8w-mvpf-x27x` - Advisory URL: https://github.com/pnpm/pnpm/security/advisories/GHSA-gj8w-mvpf-x27x - Shared patch PR: https://github.com/pnpm/pnpm-ghsa-j2hc-m6cf-6jm8/pull/1 - Shared patch branch: `security/ghsa-batch-2026-06-09` - Patch commit: `a93449314f398cf4bdf2e28d033c02d37395ad22` - Base commit: `origin/main` `55a4035abf1ae3fe7208ba1f5ef43c5eff58ccec` - Maintainer priority: `start-here` - Component: `pnpm configDependencies / pacquet delegation` - Patch area: pacquet/configDependency lifecycle execution is not used as install engine without trust - Affected packages: `npm:pnpm`, `npm:@pnpm/config.reader`, `npm:@pnpm/installing.commands` - CWE IDs: `CWE-829`, `CWE-78`, `CWE-494` - Conservative CVSS: `7.5` / `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H` - Next action: review the shared patch branch for this component, set the final affected version range, merge and release the fix, then publish or close the advisory. ### Expected Patched Behavior config-dependency pacquet install engines are not selected unless the trusted allowlist is set outside the repository; the marker file is not created. ### Files And Tests To Review - `config/reader/src/Config.ts` - `config/reader/src/types.ts` - `config/reader/src/configFileKey.ts` - `config/reader/src/index.ts` - `config/reader/test/index.ts` - `installing/commands/src/installDeps.ts` - `installing/commands/test/runPacquet.ts` - `pnpm/test/install/pacquet.ts` - `.changeset/lucky-config-plugin-pnpmfiles.md` ### Focused Validation Run these from a checkout of the shared patch branch. They are the useful maintainer commands with machine-local artifact paths removed. ```bash ./node_modules/.bin/tsgo --build config/re
