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.

Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.

SourceRuleReasonAccepted byWhen
source-diff source-size-tripled AI (source-diff): Size increase is entirely explained by addition of webpack dist bundles (browser build artifacts via aegir). The main entry point src/index.js is unchanged. ai
source-diff net-exec-file:dist/index.js AI (source-diff): dist/index.js is a standard webpack browser bundle produced by aegir build. The 'network + code execution' pattern is webpack's module loader boilerplate, not malicious dropper behavior. Stable for this package. ai
publish-pattern new-deps-added AI (publish-pattern): class-is is a well-known, legitimate IPFS/IPLD ecosystem utility for type-checking. No malicious signals. ai
semgrep semgrep:hex-decode AI (semgrep): Hardcoded literal hex byte '01' used as CID version prefix in encoding logic. Not payload obfuscation; stable false positive for this package. ai
typosquat typosquat.levenshtein:cors AI (typosquat): 'cids' is a legitimate IPFS Content Identifier package with no relation to 'cors'; the Levenshtein match is a false positive that will generalize across all versions. ai
provenance publisher-changed AI (provenance): achingbrain is a long-standing contributor to this package and the broader IPFS/multiformats ecosystem with 782 approved packages; transition from vmx is a legitimate org handoff. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-added AI (maintainer-change): achingbrain and rvagg are both listed contributors in package.json and known Protocol Labs/multiformats ecosystem maintainers; addition is a legitimate org-level change. ai
