The release of pnpm 11 introduces significant supply chain security enhancements, including a default 24-hour minimum release age for packages, the blocking of exotic subdependencies, and a streamlined allowBuilds model. These features are designed to mitigate rapid supply chain attacks, such as the recent Mini Shai-Hulud campaign, by restricting install-time execution and unexpected dependency sources.
