Approving — brace-expansion 2.1.0 → 2.1.4, a transitive dev-scope security patch (lockfile-only).
Advisory
GHSA-rgw5-rvv9-x895 / CVE-2026-69152 — HIGH, CVSS 7.5. Denial of service via unbounded intermediate arrays, which bypasses the earlier CVE-2026-14257 mitigation. 2.1.4 is one of the maintainer's coordinated patched releases (alongside 1.1.18, 3.0.6 and 5.0.9).
Supply chain
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Publisher | juliangruber — personal account, no attestation |
| Publisher continuity | unchanged across the 2.x line; this package has never published with provenance, so the absence is a constant, not a regression |
| Repository | github.com/juliangruber/brace-expansion — matches the declared field |
| Install hooks | none |
| Upstream change | index.js plus a dedicated regression test named for the advisory, landed as a "Merge commit from fork" — the signature of GitHub's private security-advisory workflow |
The absence of provenance is worth stating plainly rather than glossing over. It is mitigated here by publisher continuity, a matching repo field, a small reviewable upstream diff, and the fact that this is a dev-scope transitive dependency — it does not reach consumers of this library.
Note
The coordinated multi-line release (four majors patched within minutes of each other) reads as alarming at a glance — old lines suddenly moving all at once — but it is the expected shape of an embargoed fix being backported across every supported line, not an anomaly.
CI
Green across the full matrix — 16.x, 18.x, 20.x, 22.x, 24.x, plus lint and coverage.
Bumps brace-expansion from 2.1.0 to 2.1.4.
