Rescanned at commit da9f149377e0, unchanged since the check below.
INSTALL_LIFECYCLE_HOOK
Why this grade
- INSTALL_LIFECYCLE_HOOK Medium
A package install hook (preinstall, install, postinstall or prepare) runs a script.
package.json, line 9
prepare
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.
