Dependency update bot watching the Quay repository for new tags; its custom regex manager was the site of the extractVersionTemplate defect.
GitLab put Dependency Firewall into early access with policies for malicious status, severity, license and package age across six package managers. The check is meant to run while the CI job still holds its credentials, according to a dev.to write-up.
Reality
pnpm, npm, Bun and Yarn can each refuse versions younger than a set age, using minutes, days, seconds and minutes respectively. Pasting pnpm's 1440 into npm makes the cooldown 1440 days, roughly 3.9 years.
