There are 2 open security issues in trixie.
2 issues left for the package maintainer to handle:
- CVE-2025-6545:
(needs triaging)
Improper Input Validation vulnerability in pbkdf2 allows Signature Spoofing by Improper Validation. This vulnerability is associated with program files lib/to-buffer.Js. This issue affects pbkdf2: from 3.0.10 through 3.1.2.
- CVE-2026-102414:
(needs triaging)
pbkdf2 through 3.1.6 re-hashes passwords longer than the digest's block size on every iteration in its JavaScript fallback (lib/sync.js). A password longer than the block size (64 bytes, or 128 bytes for sha384 and sha512) is passed to HMAC as the key on every iteration, and HMAC hashes such keys in full each time. Cost is therefore O(iterations × password length), and a long password can block the event loop. The fallback is used by pbkdf2Sync and pbkdf2 on Node.js before 0.12, on Bun (1.0.0 through 1.1.34, and 1.2.6 and later), and on Deno 2.9.0 and later, because their native pbkdf2Sync fails the library's feature check. It is also used when lib/sync.js is imported directly. Node.js 0.12 and later, and browser builds (which use lib/sync-browser.js), are not affected. Applications that enforce a reasonable maximum password length are not meaningfully affected.
You can find information about how to handle these issues in the security team's documentation.
