CVE-2022-29244: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor
(updated )
npm pack ignores root-level .gitignore and .npmignore file exclusion directives when run in a workspace or with a workspace flag (ie. --workspaces, --workspace=<name>). Anyone who has run npm pack or npm publish inside a workspace, as of v7.9.0 and v7.13.0 respectively, may be affected and have published files into the npm registry they does not intend to include. Users should upgrade to the latest, patched version of npm v8.11.0, run: npm i -g npm@latest . Node.js versions v16.15.1, v17.19.1, and v18.3.0 include the patched v8.11.0 version of npm.
