      <title>CVE-2019-16776 — Unauthorized File Access in npm CLI before before version 6.13.3</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2019-16776</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm cli&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.13.3 are vulnerable to an Arbitrary File Write. It fails to prevent access to folders outside of the intended node_modules folder through the bin field. A properly constructed entry in the package.json bin field would allow a package publisher to modify and/or gain access to arbitrary files on a user&amp;#39;s system when the package is installed. This behavior is still possible through install scripts. This vulnerability bypasses a user using the --ignore-scripts install option.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-x8qc-rrcw-4r46 — npm symlink reference outside of node_modules</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-x8qc-rrcw-4r46</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm: npm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.13.3 are vulnerable to a symlink reference outside of node_modules. It is possible for packages to create symlinks to files outside of the`node_modules` folder through the `bin` field upon installation. A properly constructed entry in the package.json bin field would allow a package publisher to create a symlink pointing to arbitrary files on a user’s system when the package is installed. Only files accessible by the user running the `npm install` are affected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This behavior is still possible through install scripts. This vulnerability bypasses a user using the --ignore-scripts install option.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;## Recommendation&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upgrade to version 6.13.3 or later.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
