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
maintainer-change maintainer-removed AI (maintainer-change): amasad/jmm removal consistent with historical Babel team changes; no malicious indicators. ai
semgrep semgrep:child-process-import AI (semgrep): babel-node legitimately spawns child processes to pass V8 flags; stable pattern across all versions. ai
semgrep semgrep:child-process-spawn AI (semgrep): babel-node re-spawns itself with V8 flags via spawn; documented and expected behavior. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-added AI (maintainer-change): danez is a known Babel core contributor; addition consistent with Babel team evolution. ai
provenance publisher-changed AI (provenance): Both loganfsmyth and hzoo are core Babel maintainers; this is a legitimate team publish, not a takeover. ai
dependencies unvetted-dep:request AI (dependencies): request is a well-known HTTP library used legitimately in babel-cli for network calls; stable false positive for this package. ai
dependencies unvetted-dep:v8flags AI (dependencies): v8flags is a well-known utility for enumerating V8 flags, used legitimately by babel-node; stable false positive for this package. ai
semgrep semgrep:dynamic-require AI (semgrep): Dynamic require in babel-doctor reads package.json from a known path to retrieve version info — standard diagnostic pattern, not arbitrary module loading. ai

2 findings
HIGH Publisher changed: loganfsmyth → hzoo (on 2017-03-13) provenance

This version was published by a different npm account than previous versions on 2017-03-13. This could indicate a legitimate maintainer transition or an account compromise.

LOW No provenance attestation provenance

Package was published without Sigstore provenance. Consider requesting the maintainer enable provenance via CI/CD.

HIGH Publisher changed: hzoo → loganfsmyth (on 2017-02-14) provenance

This version was published by a different npm account than previous versions on 2017-02-14. This could indicate a legitimate maintainer transition or an account compromise.

v6.22.2

2 findings
LOW No provenance attestation provenance

Package was published without Sigstore provenance. Consider requesting the maintainer enable provenance via CI/CD.

INFO Publisher changed: hzoo → loganfsmyth (on 2017-01-20, known maintainer) provenance

This version was published by a different npm account (loganfsmyth) than the most recent previously approved version (hzoo) on 2017-01-20, but loganfsmyth is listed as a maintainer on prior approved versions (matched on name). This looks like a manual publish by a known maintainer rather than a publisher change. Recorded as INFO for audit trail.
