Provenance

Supply chain provenance

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-takeover AI (maintainer-change): Legitimate transfer to Babel core team members (hzoo, boopathi, vignesh.shanmugam) within the babel/babili monorepo project. ai
provenance publisher-changed AI (provenance): Publisher changed from amasad to boopathi as part of official Babel/babili project maintainer transition. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-added AI (maintainer-change): New maintainers are established Babel core team members; legitimate project handoff. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-removed AI (maintainer-change): amasad stepped away from the project; removal is consistent with legitimate transition. ai
bogus-package bogus-package AI (bogus-package): Legitimate Babel ecosystem helper from babel/minify monorepo. hzoo and loganfsmyth are known Babel core team members; tiny payload and no deps are expected for a focused helper utility. ai
provenance no-provenance AI (provenance): Long-established package (3527 days old) predating Sigstore provenance; no-provenance is expected and not a risk signal here. ai

v0.1.1

3 findings
HIGH Complete maintainer takeover detected maintainer-change

All previous maintainers (amasad) were replaced by new maintainers (vignesh.shanmugam, hzoo, boopathi). This is a strong signal of a potential package hijack and requires careful review.

HIGH Publisher changed: amasad → boopathi (on 2017-05-22) provenance

This version was published by a different npm account than previous versions on 2017-05-22. This could indicate a legitimate maintainer transition or an account compromise.

INFO No provenance attestation provenance
