You're right, thanks for catching this. The diff just adds a new, unused brace-expansion@5.0.8 entry alongside the existing brace-expansion@^2.0.2 → 2.1.2 resolution, so nothing in the tree actually picks up the patched version. I'll push a fix that forces the whole dependency tree onto 5.0.8 instead of adding a parallel entry, and verify it against the CVE before asking for another look. |
Previous fix added brace-expansion as a direct dependency, which left minimatch@9's transitive brace-expansion@2.1.2 copy unaffected. Switch to a Yarn resolutions override so all consumers resolve to 5.0.8. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

@swc/cli is a build-time tool invoked via exec() — it should not be a published runtime dependency. Having it in dependencies causes downstream consumers to transitively pull in the vulnerable brace-expansion@2.x via minimatch@^9. Moving it to devDependencies removes that chain from the published package entirely. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove the resolutions override — brace-expansion@2.1.3 contains the CVE-2026-14257 fix natively, so the ^2.0.2 range now resolves to a patched version without forcing a cross-major override. The lockfile now carries 2.1.3 (for minimatch@9) and 5.0.8 (for minimatch@10), both containing the fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
