"notes": "CVE-2026-41907: uuid v3/v5/v6 API methods skip bounds validation when the caller passes an external output buffer (and/or offset), allowing silent partial writes that produce malformed/truncated UUIDs. Accepted risk: all vulnerable transitive copies in the lockfile are uuid@8.3.2 reached via @nteract/commutable, @nteract/messaging, @nteract/types, istanbul-lib-processinfo, and node-notifier. Each call site uses only uuid.v4() (verified by grep in node_modules) — v4 is explicitly listed as unaffected. Bumping these transitive deps to a major-version override (>=11.1.1) is unsafe because @nteract packages declare uuid@^8.0.0 and the API surface differs across majors.",

Reached only via @vscode/extension-telemetry@0.7.7 -> applicationinsights@2.5.0 -> @opentelemetry/core@1.10.1. Accepted risk: telemetry is permanently disabled in this extension (isTelemetryDisabled() in src/platform/telemetry/index.ts hard-returns true), so the Baggage propagator is never exercised. No safe transitive override exists: the fix is @opentelemetry/core>=2.8.0, but applicationinsights@2.5.0 and the 1.x @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base and @opentelemetry/resources still in the tree call symbols removed in otel 2.x (getEnv, DEFAULT_ATTRIBUTE_COUNT_LIMIT, TracesSamplerValues), so forcing core to 2.x breaks them at runtime. The real remediation is upgrading @vscode/extension-telemetry to >=1.5.2 (which drops applicationinsights and @opentelemetry entirely) — a major upgrade deferred to a dedicated change.",

"notes": "CVE-2025-14505: elliptic's ECDSA signing mis-computes the byte length of the nonce k when k has leading zeros, emitting a truncated signature; an attacker who obtains both a faulty and a correct signature over the same input can recover the private key. Accepted risk: dev-only transitive dependency, absent from the production tree (`npm ls elliptic --omit=dev` is empty). Reached only via node-stdlib-browser@1.3.1 -> crypto-browserify@3.12.1 -> browserify-sign@4.2.5 / create-ecdh@4.0.4 -> elliptic@6.6.1. node-stdlib-browser is a devDependency used exclusively by build/esbuild/build.ts, whose stdlib polyfill plugin is applied only to the web test entry (src/test/web/index.ts -> out/extension.web.bundle.js, excluded from the VSIX by `out/**` in .vscodeignore); the production desktop and web bundles never pull it in, confirmed by the absence of node_modules/elliptic, node_modules/browserify-sign and node_modules/crypto-browserify inputs in dist/*.esbuild.meta.json. No code in this extension performs ECDSA signing. No override is possible: every published elliptic release is affected (range <=6.6.1, and 6.6.1 is the latest version on npm, published 2024-11-13), GitHub lists no patched version, and npm audit reports fixAvailable:false. The real remediation is an upstream elliptic release, or dropping node-stdlib-browser from the web test bundle in favour of native browser crypto.",

GitHub advisory GHSA-848j-6mx2-7j84 patched upstream version elliptic CVE-2025-14505 npm override transitive dependency documentation

💡 Result:

CVE-2025-14505 (tracked as GHSA-848j-6mx2-7j84) is a cryptographic vulnerability in the npm package elliptic (all versions <= 6.6.1) [1][2][3]. It stems from an incorrect calculation of the byte-length of 'k' during ECDSA signature generation, which leads to truncation when 'k' has leading zeros [1][4]. This can produce invalid signatures and, under specific conditions, allow an attacker to derive the secret signing key [1][5]. As of August 18, 2026, there is no official patched version published by the upstream elliptic maintainers [6][7]. While a pull request containing a fix has been identified in the repository [4], it has not been merged or released as a stable version [8]. Consequently, remediation for transitive dependencies must rely on manual intervention [9][10]. To address this vulnerability, you can use the npm overrides field in your package.json to force the use of a patched version or to apply the upstream fix [9][10]. Because no official release exists, many users have adopted the following strategies: 1. Override with an alternative: Some projects have opted to migrate away from elliptic to other libraries, such as @noble/curves, to mitigate the risk entirely [11]. 2. Manual Patching: You can use tools like patch-package to apply the known upstream fix directly to your node_modules directory, ensuring the fix is reapplied during subsequent installs [4][9]. 3. Dependency Override: If a fork or a specific patched version becomes available (e.g., through third-party support services like HeroDevs) [8], you can force your project to use it by adding the following to your package.json: { "overrides": { "elliptic": "patched-version-or-fork" } } Always verify the fix by running your test suite, as forcing an override can occasionally introduce breaking changes if the parent dependency depends on specific behaviors of the vulnerable version [9][10].

Use precise override wording.

Replace “No override is possible” with “No patched upstream release is currently available.” npm overrides can point to a patched fork or alternative package.
