NewCVE-2026-104854 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade nx to version 22.7.9, 23.1.2 or higher.
Overview
nx is a The core Nx plugin contains the core functionality of Nx like the project graph, nx commands and task orchestration.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Control Bypass via insecure creation of Unix domain sockets for the Nx daemon and isolated plugin workers. Socket directories and files are created under the ambient umask with no explicit permissions, and plugin worker sockets are placed directly in the shared system temp root (os.tmpdir()). This allows a local attacker sharing the same host to connect to or replace these sockets, enabling interception or manipulation of inter-process communication between the daemon and its clients with full read, write, and availability impact on the affected process.
