Accepted rules are downgraded to INFO on future analyses; rejected rules escalate to CRITICAL.
| Rule | Source | Disposition | Author | Reason | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
install-script:preinstall |
install-scripts | reject | AI | AI (install-scripts): Preinstall fetches and evals remote code; malicious by design across all versions. | |
bogus-package |
bogus-package | reject | AI | AI (bogus-package): SPAM-FLAGGED publisher, no repo, tiny payload — generalizes to all versions. | |
semgrep:etc-passwd-access |
semgrep | reject | AI | AI (semgrep): Credential harvesting via /etc/passwd read; malicious pattern stable across versions. | |
semgrep:eval-usage |
semgrep | reject | AI | AI (semgrep): eval() on remotely fetched payload; malicious by design across all versions. |
SAST Findings (8)
[Always reject] Script: node preinstall.js
[Always reject] Matched 7 signal(s), weighted score 9: • [S_KNOWN_SPAM_PUBLISHER] Maintainer(s) previously flagged as spam: m0ntana. • [S_NO_REPO_NO_HOME] No repository, homepage, or bugs URL — genuine packages almost always link somewhere. • [S_NO_KEYWORDS] No keywords declared. • [S_NO_DEPS] No runtime, dev, peer, or optional dependencies declared. • [S_TINY_PAYLOAD] Tiny payload: 3 code file(s), 2018 bytes total. • [S_INFLATED_FIRST_SEMVER] First publish at version 99.0.1 — inflated semver on a brand-new package. • [S_EMPTY_MAIN] Entry point (index.js) is 21 bytes — effectively empty.

Package was published without Sigstore provenance. Only ~12% of npm packages have provenance, so this is common but not ideal.
