CVE-2025-65025

HIGH

esm.sh < 136 - Path Traversal and Arbitrary File Write via NPM Package Tarball Extraction

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

esm.sh is a nobuild content delivery network(CDN) for modern web development. Prior to version 136, the esm.sh CDN service is vulnerable to path traversal during NPM package tarball extraction. An attacker can craft a malicious NPM package containing specially crafted file paths (e.g., package/../../tmp/evil.js). When esm.sh downloads and extracts this package, files may be written to arbitrary locations on the server, escaping the intended extraction directory. This issue has been patched in version 136.
