Improve shrinkwrap security by default by using always SHA512 hashes #536

Description

@evilaliv3

Current behaviour of NPM is to perform a shrinkwrap by using the archived SHA hash stored on the registry at the time of publishing.

This causes a well known behaviour where only packages published using NPM benefits of hashes of type SHA512, while older packages published before continue have only an hash of type SHA1 known to not be resilient about collisions.

This poses severe possible server securiy issues on crytical projects using dependencies published on NPM.

This ticket is to propose the reception of on of the following changes:

  • Extend the registry to automatically perform re-hashing of the existing published packages including an hash of type sha512
  • extend the shrinkwrap utility with the possibility to perform an online hashing of the dependencies directly while performing the shrinkwrap process and so following a Trust on First Use approach (TOFU).

                              Improve shrinkwrap security by default by using always SHA512 hashes #536

                              Description

                              @evilaliv3

                              Current behaviour of NPM is to perform a shrinkwrap by using the archived SHA hash stored on the registry at the time of publishing.

                              This causes a well known behaviour where only packages published using NPM benefits of hashes of type SHA512, while older packages published before continue have only an hash of type SHA1 known to not be resilient about collisions.

                              This poses severe possible server securiy issues on crytical projects using dependencies published on NPM.

                              This ticket is to propose the reception of on of the following changes:

                              • Extend the registry to automatically perform re-hashing of the existing published packages including an hash of type sha512
                              • extend the shrinkwrap utility with the possibility to perform an online hashing of the dependencies directly while performing the shrinkwrap process and so following a Trust on First Use approach (TOFU).
