GHSA-67c8-pqhq-4rmx: piscina (CVE-2026-102992)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
piscina	npm	>=5.0.0, <5.3.2 \|\| <4.9.4 \|\| >=6.0.0-rc.1, <6.0.0-rc.5	5.3.2, 4.9.4, 6.0.0-rc.5

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Piscina versions below 4.9.4, from 5.0.0 up to but not including 5.3.2, and from 6.0.0-rc.1 up to but not including 6.0.0-rc.5 are affected. ThreadPool.options inherits from Object.prototype, so an attacker who can pollute Object.prototype through another flaw in the application can inject values such as execArgv, leading to code execution in worker threads and other effects. Upgrade to Piscina 4.9.4, 5.3.2, or 6.0.0-rc.5 or later.
