CVE-2022-29244low · fixedCVSS 3.1

Packing does not respect root-level ignore files in workspaces

### Impact `npm pack` ignores root-level `.gitignore` & `.npmignore` file exclusion directives when run in a workspace or with a workspace flag (ie. `--workspaces`, `--workspace=<name>`). Anyone who has run `npm pack` or `npm publish` with workspaces, as of [v7.9.0](https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v7.9.0) & [v7.13.0](https://github.com/npm/cli/releases/tag/v7.13.0) respectively, may be affected and have published files into the npm registry they did not intend to include. ### Patch - Up

Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource in NPM

An issue was discovered in an npm 5.7.0 2018-02-21 pre-release (marked as "next: 5.7.0" and therefore automatically installed by an "npm upgrade -g npm" command, and also announced in the vendor's blog without mention of pre-release status). It might allow local users to bypass intended filesystem access restrictions because ownerships of /etc and /usr directories are being changed unexpectedly, related to a "correctMkdir" issue.

Local Privilege Escalation in npm

Affected versions of `npm` use predictable temporary file names during archive unpacking. If an attacker can create a symbolic link at the location of one of these temporary file names, the attacker can arbitrarily write to any file that the user which owns the `npm` process has permission to write to, potentially resulting in local privilege escalation. ## Recommendation Update to version 1.3.3 or later.

The CLI supports URLs like `<protocol>://[<user>[:<password>]@]<hostname>[:<port>][:][/]<path>`. The password value is not redacted and is printed to stdout and also to any generated log files.

npm Vulnerable to Global node_modules Binary Overwrite

Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.13.4 are vulnerable to a Global node_modules Binary Overwrite. It fails to prevent existing globally-installed binaries to be overwritten by other package installations. For example, if a package was installed globally and created a `serve` binary, any subsequent installs of packages that also create a `serve` binary would overwrite the first binary. This will not overwrite system binaries but only binaries put into the global node_modules directory. This b

hive-mcp-auction

Inbound reverse Dutch auction agent — Hive Civilization

When a Hive shim hits its rate-limit headroom, the next request gets a 402 with a Dutch descent envelope: starting price 5x standard asking, dropping 5% every 30s until claimed or floor. First agent to settle at the current price wins the slot. Pure protocol — no DMs, no spam. Inbound only.

Council provenance: Ad-hoc, user-promoted 2026-04-27 (Tier A position 2, symmetric sibling to HiveBarter). Barter discovers what others will sell for; auction discovers what others will pay for ours.

What this is

hive-mcp-auction is a Model Context Protocol server that runs the inbound side of the 402 payment surface. When hivemorph's rate-limiter detects a shim's current usage exceeds its headroom (default 80% of cap), it signs an internal auction_open request, this service publishes the descent curve, and the next 402 envelope on that shim carries an auction block alongside the standard accepts[]. Agents who don't want to play pay normal asking and queue. Agents who want the slot now claim at the current curve price.

Protocol: MCP 2024-11-05 over Streamable-HTTP / JSON-RPC 2.0
Transport: POST /mcp
Discovery: GET /.well-known/mcp.json
Health: GET /health
Settlement: USDC on Base L2 — real rails, no mock, no simulated
Brand gold: Pantone 1245 C / #C08D23

Tools

Tool	Tier	Description
`auction_open`	internal	Open a new Dutch auction for a scarce shim slot. HMAC-signed, hivemorph rate-limiter only. Surfaced for discovery; opens go through `POST /v1/auction/open`.
`auction_subscribe`	0 (free)	Subscribe to the live descent curve via SSE. Returns the subscribe URL.
`auction_book`	0 (free)	Today aggregate: opens, closes, avg premium pct, total USDC captured.

REST endpoints

Method	Path	Purpose
`POST`	`/v1/auction/open`	Open a new Dutch auction (HMAC-signed; hivemorph only).
`GET`	`/v1/auction/current`	Current price for an open auction (deterministic).
`GET`	`/v1/auction/curve`	Full descent curve. JSON or SSE (`Accept: text/event-stream`).
`POST`	`/v1/auction/claim`	Claim at current price. First-claim-wins, race-safe.
`GET`	`/v1/auction/history`	Closed auction ledger.
`GET`	`/v1/auction/today`	Today aggregate (Tier 0, free).
`GET`	`/health`	Service health.

Dutch descent math

start_price = asking_usd * 5.0          (5x asking)
floor_price = asking_usd * 0.5          (50% of asking)
drop_pct    = 0.05                      (5% per tick)
interval_s  = 30                        (one tick per 30s)

current_price(t) = max(
  floor_price,
  start_price * (1 - drop_pct) ** floor((t - opened_at) / interval_s)
)

After ~28 ticks (~14 min) the auction reaches floor. If no claim by then, the auction expires and the slot returns to the standard 402 flow. The function is pure. Same arguments give the same number to the cent. No RNG, no DB read, no clock skew tolerance baked in. The public envelope alone is provably fair.
