{"id":"CVE-2022-39382","aliases":["GHSA-25mx-2mxm-6343"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2022-39382","summary":"NODE_ENV in Keystone defaults to development with esbuild","details":"Keystone is a headless CMS for Node.js — built with GraphQL and React.`@keystone-6/core@3.0.0 || 3.0.1` users that use `NODE_ENV` to trigger security-sensitive functionality in their production builds are vulnerable to `NODE_ENV` being inlined to `\"development\"` for user code, irrespective of what your environment variables. If you do not use `NODE_ENV` in your user code to trigger security-sensitive functionality, you are not impacted by this vulnerability. Any dependencies that use `NODE_ENV` to trigger particular behaviors (optimizations, security or otherwise) should still respect your environment's configured `NODE_ENV` variable. The application's dependencies, as found in `node_modules` (including `@keystone-6/core`), are typically not compiled as part of this process, and thus should be unaffected. We have tested this assumption by verifying that `NODE_ENV=production yarn keystone start` still uses secure cookies when using `statelessSessions`. This vulnerability has been fixed in @keystone-6/core@3.0.2, regression tests have been added for this vulnerability in #8063.","published":"2022-11-03T00:00:00Z","modified":"2026-08-08T03:47:33.970327458Z","cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":1,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@keystone-6/core","fixedVersion":"3.0.2"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/pull/8063","label":"keystonejs/keystone#8063"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/pull/8031/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/39xxx/CVE-2022-39382.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/security/advisories/GHSA-25mx-2mxm-6343"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-39382"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/pull/8063"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-08T03:47:33.970327458Z"}}
