    yeoman-environment Vulnerable to Arbitrary Package Installation without User Confirmation

    CVE-2026-42089 · GHSA-vv9j-gjw2-j8wp

    Affected
    • npm yeoman-environment >= 2.9.0, < 6.0.1
    Fixed in
    6.0.1· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact yeoman-environment versions = 2.9.0 and < 6.0.1 install missing local generator packages from caller-supplied package names without user confirmation. In downstream consumers that pass attacker-controlled project configuration into this path, this can result in arbitrary package installation and code execution during CLI bootstrap. The vulnerable method is installLocalGenerators(), which calls repository.install() directly without prompting the user. Patches Upgrade to yeoman-environment 6.0.1, which adds an interactive confirmation prompt before installation (PR #753). Workarounds None. Resources - Fix commit 78d2af7

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 6.0.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
