Grade D
Two or more Medium findings, or a High finding. Only try it in a sandbox.
Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.
Rescanned at commit 64f317e7d230.
INSTALL_LIFECYCLE_HOOK SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB
Why this grade
- INSTALL_LIFECYCLE_HOOK Medium
A package install hook (preinstall, install, postinstall or prepare) runs a script.
package.json, line 49
prepare - SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium
Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).
utils/version-check.ts, line 60
* Resolves the npm registry to use, honoring `.npmrc` / `npm_config_registry`. - OBFUSCATION_ENCODED_BLOB Medium
Contains a long base64 shaped string in a file that should be readable.
index.ts, line 1
#!/usr/bin/env node
Any High, or two or more Medium findings, give D. One Medium gives C. Low findings or a security Note give B. Each code names a finding behind the letter.
Grades are a hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, on the date checked, not a security audit or a guarantee. The free directory grades are automated. Before release, a PlugVet engineer reviews every paid report and any grade we hold back, including all F grades, against the source code and the evidence we quote.
