Status for the latest visible version.

No SLSA provenance npm registry signatures No source commit

Without SLSA provenance there is no cryptographic link between this tarball and the public source — the axios compromise (March 2026) relied on exactly this gap.

Accepted risks

Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.

SourceRuleReasonAccepted byWhen
semgrep semgrep:eval-usage AI (semgrep): eval() is used internally by Faker.js for template/format string interpolation on library-controlled data structures, not arbitrary user input. Legitimate use in this data-generation library. ai
semgrep semgrep:new-function-constructor AI (semgrep): Fires in examples/js/jquery.js (bundled jQuery example), not library runtime code. jQuery's historical use of new Function() for JSON parsing is well-known and benign. ai
provenance no-provenance AI (provenance): Package is ~12 years old; no provenance attestation is expected for packages predating Sigstore. ai

LOW No provenance attestation provenance

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