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.

Source	Rule	Reason	Accepted by	When
provenance	publisher-changed	AI (provenance): Publisher change reflects legitimate transfer to defunctzombie/goto-bus-stop; repo URL in package.json matches defunctzombie's GitHub account, confirming ownership.	ai	2026/04/22
maintainer-change	maintainer-added	AI (maintainer-change): New maintainers defunctzombie and goto-bus-stop are the canonical owners; repo URL confirms defunctzombie's ownership of this package.	ai	2026/04/22
maintainer-change	maintainer-removed	AI (maintainer-change): shtylman removal is consistent with a legitimate ownership transfer to defunctzombie, who owns the referenced GitHub repository.	ai	2026/04/22
publish-pattern	new-deps-added	AI (publish-pattern): inherits is a well-known, widely-trusted npm package; its addition as a runtime dep for a Node.js util polyfill is benign.	ai	2026/04/22
semgrep	semgrep:child-process-import	AI (semgrep): child_process usage is a direct port of Node.js util.exec(), consistent with this package's purpose of providing Node core module APIs. Not malicious.	ai	2026/04/22
typosquat	typosquat.levenshtein:uuid	AI (typosquat): 'util' is a legitimate, long-standing Node.js polyfill package with no relation to 'uuid'; the Levenshtein match is a stable false positive for this package.	ai	2026/04/21
