GHSA-g3hv-75wg-m249 minimatch has potential denial of service via globparts amplification

• npm minimatch: < 11.0.1 → fixed in 11.0.1

minimatch 10.2.6 contains an attacker-controlled pattern amplification in firstPhasePreProcess() when optimizationLevel >= 2. researcher: Reid Downing (b1nv0id) files: • src/index.ts: 690-770 • src/index.ts: 780-796 issue: input-controlled growth of globParts during first-phase preprocessing, followed by quadratic second-phase processing. the /../ transformation clones a globparts entry and appends the clone to the same globparts array: ``` parts.splice(gs, 1) const other = parts.slice(0) other[gs] = '' globParts.push(other) ``` this occurs inside a do...while (didSomething) fixpoint loop, allowing generated entries to be processed again. the expanded globparts array is subsequently processed by secondPhasePreProcess(), which performs pairwise comparisons: ``` for (let i = 0; i < globParts.length - 1; i++) { for (let j = i + 1; j < globParts.length; j++) { this.partsMatch(...) } } ``` an attacker who can supply a glob pattern can therefore cause additional pattern entries to be generated during preprocessing, followed by quadratic pairwise processing, resulting in excessive cpu and memory consumption.
