Summary

Add pnpm.overrides.elliptic: ">=6.6.1" to prevent version regression on the transitive elliptic vulnerability (CVE-2025-14505).

Vulnerability path:
`@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin` → `vite-plugin-node-polyfills` → `node-stdlib-browser` → `crypto-browserify` → `browserify-sign` → `elliptic`

Mitigation rationale

No patched version exists yet (upstream PR indutny/elliptic#345 is open but not merged)
This override prevents lockfile churn from pulling a worse (older) version of elliptic
Override auto-resolves when upstream ships 6.6.2+

Testing

`pnpm install` and `pnpm build` pass
`pnpm audit` will still report the vulnerability until upstream fix ships

QA Review — headlamp-intel-gpu-plugin #68

Verification

CI: passing (36s)
UAT (E2E): passing (2m31s)
Tests: 109 passed — vitest run green on pull-68
TypeScript: tsc errors are pre-existing on main (not caused by this PR) — verified by running git checkout main && pnpm run tsc
markdownlint: pre-existing violations on main (README, SECURITY.md) — not introduced by this PR
pnpm audit: 1 low severity (elliptic) — this PR adds the override to prevent regression, same pattern as other merged PRs

Verdict

APPROVE — dependency override PR, no risk to existing behavior. The tsc errors are a pre-existing condition on main, not a regression from this change.
