Charles Bochet 1e309369bc chore(deps): upgrade tar to v7, evict vulnerable tar@6.2.1 (CVE-2026-24842) (#21341)
## Summary

Removes all transitive **`tar@6.2.1`** from the dependency tree,
resolving [Dependabot alert
#400](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/security/dependabot/400)
([GHSA-34x7-hfp2-rc4v](https://github.com/isaacs/node-tar/security/advisories/GHSA-34x7-hfp2-rc4v)
/ CVE-2026-24842 — node-tar hardlink path traversal, high/8.2).

The alert had been dismissed as `no_bandwidth`, but `tar@6.2.1` was
still in the lockfile. I confirmed **6.2.1 is genuinely exploitable** by
running the advisory's PoC (the hardlink escaped the extraction dir to a
parent-directory file); `7.5.16` blocks it. There is **no patched 6.x
release** — the fix only exists in `7.5.7+`.

## Approach

Upgrade the build tooling that pulled tar v6 to the majors that depend
on tar v7, rather than forcing tar onto v6-era consumers:

| Package | Change | Mechanism |
|---|---|---|
| `node-gyp` | 10.2.0 / 7.1.2 / 9.4.1 → **12.4.0** | resolution |
| `cacache` | 18 → **20.0.4** | resolution |
| `make-fetch-happen` | → **15.0.6** | resolution |
| `mintlify` (twenty-docs) | `latest` → **^4.2.594**
(`@mintlify/previewing` → tar 7.5.15) | direct dep bump |
| `@electron/rebuild`, `@electron/node-gyp`, `pacote` → `tar` | →
**^7.5.16** | scoped resolution |

The last row covers the two subtrees with **no upstream tar-v7
release**: `@electron/rebuild` (+ electron's `node-gyp` fork) in
`twenty-companion`, and `pacote@11/15` via `zapier-platform-cli` in
`twenty-zapier`.

All `tar` now resolves to **7.5.13 / 7.5.15 / 7.5.16**; `node_modules`
verified free of tar v6.

## Validation done
- `yarn install` completes cleanly (constraints pass, only pre-existing
`enableScripts: false` + peer-dep warnings).
- Installed `node_modules` contains zero tar v6.

## Validation still needed before merge ⚠️
- The scoped overrides force tar v7 onto packages written for the v6
API. Resolution is consistent, but **runtime not exercised**
(`enableScripts: false` skips native builds at install). Please
validate:
  - `twenty-companion` electron `make` / native rebuild
  - `twenty-zapier` build/push
- If either breaks, drop the scoped overrides and accept those two
**dev/build-only** clusters as residual — they extract only trusted
archives at build time, so the CVE (which needs attacker-controlled
input) isn't reachable there.
- `mintlify` is pinned (not `latest`) because `.yarnrc.yml`'s
`npmMinimalAgeGate: 3d` quarantines the true latest. Pinning is arguably
healthier, but it's a deliberate behavior change.

## Note
twenty-server's own runtime tarball extraction
(`extract-tarball-securely.util.ts`) was already on patched tar **and**
rejects all hardlink/symlink entries — so this PR addresses the
remaining build-tooling exposure, not a live runtime hole.

Large `yarn.lock` churn is expected: the node-gyp/cacache major bumps
refresh npm-internals tree-wide.

📚 Content

This repository contains:

  • User Guide (46 pages) - Complete guide for Twenty users
  • Developers (24 pages) - Technical documentation for developers
  • Twenty UI (25 pages) - UI component library documentation

🚀 Local Development

To run the documentation locally:

# From the twenty monorepo root
npx nx run twenty-docs:dev

The documentation will be available at http://localhost:3000

📝 Editing Content

Adding/Editing Pages

  1. Edit MDX files in the appropriate directory:

    • user-guide/ - User documentation
    • developers/ - Developer documentation
    • twenty-ui/ - Component documentation
  2. Update navigation/base-structure.json if you need to change the tab/group hierarchy or add/remove pages. This file stays in the repo and is not uploaded to Crowdin.

  3. Keep the translation template (navigation/navigation.template.json) in sync by running yarn docs:generate-navigation-template after editing the base structure. This template is the only file that should be pushed to Crowdin.

  4. For each translated locale pulled from Crowdin, ensure a packages/twenty-docs/l/<language>/navigation.json file exists. These files contain labels only; page slugs always come from the base structure.

  5. Run yarn docs:generate to rebuild docs.json from the base structure + translated labels.

MDX Format

All documentation pages use MDX format with frontmatter:

---
title: Page Title
description: Page description
image: /images/path/to/image.png
---

Your content here...

Adding Images

  1. Place images in the /images/ directory
  2. Reference them in MDX: ![Alt text](/images/your-image.png)
  3. Or use Mintlify Frame component:
<Frame>
  <img src="/images/your-image.png" alt="Description" />
</Frame>

🔧 Configuration

  • navigation/base-structure.json - Source of truth for tabs, groups, icons, and page slugs (English only, not sent to Crowdin).
  • navigation/navigation.template.json - Generated translation template (labels only) that is uploaded to Crowdin.
  • l/<language>/navigation.json - Locale-specific label files pulled from Crowdin.
  • docs.json - Generated Mintlify configuration (always run yarn docs:generate after modifying navigation files).
  • package.json - Package dependencies and scripts (docs:generate, docs:generate-navigation-template, …).
  • project.json - Nx workspace configuration
