[phish108]

This issue is fixed on NPM for this module in v1.0.3. For the audit alert is created by downstream dependencies in package-lock.json.

In most cases rebuilding package-lock helps resolving this issue in your projects.

Please note the remarks on #7 - you should be aware that version 1.0.3 no longer depends on minimist.

For eslint users: check this issue eslint/eslint#13050

[dosstx]

@phish108 how do we rebuild the package-lock.json file? Is that all we need to do?

[jfoclpf]

@dosstx you delete the file and then run npm install But I don't know if that solves any problem. I think we just need to wait for other packages that depend on this one and on which you depend on, to be updated.

[phish108]

@jfoclpf it solves the issue for many dependencies with semver ranges.

Sometimes it should hang due to the major release, but it solved it for me.

[ashishkujoy]

Created a Pull request in node-tap to fixes the all security issue. Once the pull request get merge and new version get publish we can upgrade node-tap version here to fix the issues.

[ashishkujoy]

@jfoclpf it solves the issue for many dependencies with semver ranges.

Hi @phish108 That usually when declare your dependency using ^version the ^ tells npm to install this version or in case any higher version is available then install that. And in case there are any higher version that get installed and the security may get resolve with that higher version.

[phish108]

@ashishkujoy caret ranges do not work exactly as you describe them, but halt at major versions. See: https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/semver

Either way, this issue seems to me mostly as a downstream problem, won’t you agree?

[jfoclpf]

@jfoclpf it solves the issue for many dependencies with semver ranges.

Sometimes it should hang due to the major release, but it solved it for me.

Didn't solve anything for me. Take for example the case of standard, look at the dependency chain:

standard > eslint > file-entry-cache > flat-cache > write > mkdirp > minimist

We need to wait for all that chain to be gradually updated. Furthermore when you install a package via npm i package it simply adds to package.json the specific version of the dependency at the moment. I doubt that many people use semver ranges

[phish108]

@jfoclpf you are correct, since the issue is solved here (in a major release), the downstream caret ranges need to get updated, “manually”. This can be annoying, if different dependencies ask for lower versions than the current release.

Aside from that, caret ranges are the default when running npm i —save somemodule. So they are quite common.

In your case there are two major release issues in your chain:

First is mkdirp, which upgraded from 0.5.1 to 1.0.3, while dropping the minimist dependency in this course. However, write@1.* asks for mkdirp@0.5.1 or later, but smaller than 1.0.0.

This would not be so much of an issue, because write@2.0.0 drops the mkdirp dependency altogether.

Besides eslint@6.8.0 direct dependencies, for which we have to wait until the official release of version 7 to fix the issue; the problem in your chain is with flat-cache, which asks write@1.0.3 or newer, but lower than 2.0.0, which is write’s current release.

[heitorlessa]

Thanks for opening this issue - This is the last one on my list to finally address all security issues of the week

Referencing Cypress so others can easily subscribe for updates: cypress-io/cypress#6793

[heitorlessa]

Hey @isaacs - Whenever you can, could you please take a look at the PR above, merge and publish a new version of mkdirp?

I'm sure you must be busy with daily activities, so we'd appreciate if we could help merge this PR to address this vulnerability as it's causing issues in other packages upstream.

Thank you

[phish108]

@heitorlessa there is already a new release, but it is a major release, which requires downstream activity. (please read the discussion above)

[heitorlessa]

thanks for the heads up @phish108 - I blindly assumed 240+ packages affected (transitive deps) were allowing patch updates but major versions. Well, turns out a few packages I checked are using exact version and not ranges :/ this is gonna last for much longer than I thought.

[Jengwa]

not solving a thing for me

[mnepita]

Having similar issue here.

[tschallacka]

@Jengwa @mnepita Please make issues /upvote relevant issues with the packages that implement mkdirp that they should update. In the case of @mnepita That would be extract-zip

[josteink]

This one dependency causes almost every package known in the Angular-universe to be flagged as a security vulnerability.

For this mkdirp-dependency is the cause of 55 out of 56 indirect, insecure minimist-versions in my repo.

Please consider upgrading. It should be a really quick and simple job.

@josteink it's not a quick job it will take time.
Reason: tap does not want to upgrade mkdirp(this package) because 1.x version of mkdirp does not support node8, they want to support node8 and remove the dependency of this package in next major tap v15 which is currently in development.

More information please have look at this closed PR

[josteink]

@josteink it's not a quick job it will take time.
Reason: tap does not want to upgrade mkdirp(this package) because 1.x version of mkdirp does not support node8

Then the nice and pragmatic thing would be to make a 0.5.5 release (or something like that) based on the older code-base with Node8 support and no breaking changes apart from upgrading minimist.

That's a really small job to do, and something which the author of the package could use to garner good-will, rather than frustration.

Right now there's no known npm audit fix --depth based solution for end-users/developers to fix this on their own...

[ashishkujoy]

Closing this issue as tap has been updated and currently there is no security vulnerabilities.

[josteink]

Why close?

mkdirp is a dependency to lots of packages besides tap.

Tap updating won’t solve it for anyone else.

[ashishkujoy]

@josteink
Please refer the screenshot, i ran npm audit today with the latest code, and its showing 0 vulnerabilities.

[KikelDmitry]

Hi! Still have issues with mkdirp -> minimist :(
Rebuilding dependency tree in package-lock.json not help me with my case.
