json3
A JSON polyfill for older JavaScript platforms.
Supply chain provenance
Status for the latest visible version.
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.

| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| source-diff | obfuscated-file:vendor/uglifyjs/lib/parse-js.js | AI (source-diff): UglifyJS parser source by Mihai Bazon; long lines from parser tables, not obfuscation. | ai | |
| source-diff | large-new-source-files | AI (source-diff): 99 new files are the vendored UglifyJS tree used for json3's build process; legitimate bundling. | ai | |
| source-diff | net-exec-file:vendor/uglifyjs/lib/consolidator.js | AI (source-diff): Vendored UglifyJS consolidator module; code execution patterns are inherent to JS parser/compressor tooling, not malware. | ai | |
| source-diff | net-exec-file:vendor/uglifyjs/lib/process.js | AI (source-diff): Vendored UglifyJS AST processor; eval-like constructs are inherent to code generation tooling. | ai | |
| source-diff | net-exec-file:vendor/uglifyjs/test/testparser.js | AI (source-diff): Vendored UglifyJS test file using require('sys') and parseJS; standard test harness, not malware. | ai | |
| source-diff | obfuscated-file:coverage/lcov-report/prettify.js | AI (source-diff): This is Google Code Prettify, a standard file bundled by Istanbul/nyc lcov HTML coverage reports. Not obfuscated malicious code. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:dynamic-require | AI (semgrep): Dynamic require is in benchmark/benchmark_json3.js, a benchmark harness. Standard pattern for loading competing implementations; not production code. | ai | |
| source-diff | net-exec-file:benchmark/assets/html5.js | AI (source-diff): File is the HTML5 Shiv polyfill in benchmark/assets/ — dev/benchmark tooling only, not on any production code path. Pattern is DOM shim logic, not malware. | ai |
