CVE-2025-10894
Description
Malicious code was inserted into the Nx (build system) package and several related plugins. The tampered package was published to the npm software registry, via a supply-chain attack. Affected versions contain code that scans the file system, collects credentials, and posts them to GitHub as a repo under user's accounts.
Statement
No Red Hat products are affected. The malicious versions were blocked from being introduced into any internal Red Hat code repositories. The impact is rated Important due to the potential for information leakage, including sensitive account credentials. This attack relied upon AI command-line (CLI) tools which are designed to be used by software developers. For customers using Red Hat systems in production, the presence of such development tools is not expected, further limiting risk.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
