Provenance

Supply chain provenance

Status for the latest visible version.

No SLSA provenance npm registry signatures gitHead linked

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
source-diff net-exec-file:test/vendor/underscore-1.3.1.js AI (source-diff): This is Underscore.js 1.3.1 by the same author (Ashkenas/DocumentCloud), included as a test vendor dependency. Not malicious. ai
source-diff source-size-tripled AI (source-diff): Size increase is explained by addition of test vendor files and design assets (PDFs, PSDs, PNGs). No injected payload. ai
source-diff net-exec-file:test/vendor/jquery-1.7.1.js AI (source-diff): This is the canonical jQuery 1.7.1 library included as a test vendor dependency. The net+exec pattern is inherent to jQuery's AJAX/eval internals and is not malicious. ai
publish-pattern new-deps-added AI (publish-pattern): Underscore is Backbone's documented and expected runtime dependency. This finding is a stable false positive for this package. ai
source-diff net-exec-file:test/vendor/underscore-1.1.6.js AI (source-diff): Legitimate Underscore.js 1.1.6 vendored test fixture. Backbone's canonical dependency; net+exec pattern is a false positive on this well-known library. ai
source-diff net-exec-file:test/vendor/jquery-1.5.js AI (source-diff): Legitimate vendored jQuery 1.5 test fixture. The net+exec pattern is structural to jQuery's AJAX/eval design, not malware. Lives under test/vendor/ and is not a runtime file. ai
source-diff net-exec-file:test/vendor/json2.js AI (source-diff): Legitimate Crockford json2.js vendored test dependency. The net+exec pattern is a false positive on this well-known public domain library. ai
provenance publisher-changed AI (provenance): jridgewell is a well-established, trusted npm publisher who took over backbone maintenance from jashkenas in 2016. This is a long-standing legitimate transition, not a compromise. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-added AI (maintainer-change): jridgewell was added as a legitimate maintainer for backbone in 2016. This is a stable, known transition for this canonical package. ai
