Accepted risks
Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.
| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| typosquat | typosquat.levenshtein:glob | AI (typosquat): 'atob' is the canonical name for the Base64 decode browser API polyfill, not a typosquat of 'glob'. These are entirely different packages with different purposes. This is a stable false positive. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:base64-decode | AI (semgrep): Base64 decoding is the explicit, sole purpose of this package (atob = ASCII to binary). The flagged line is the package's core implementation, not a malicious payload. | ai |
