Next stepsWhat are unmaintained packages?Package has not been updated in more than 5 years and may be unmaintained. Problems with the package may go unaddressed. Package should publish periodic maintenance releases if they are maintained, or deprecate if they have no intention in further maintenance. What are trivial packages?Packages less than 10 lines of code are easily copied into your own project and may not warrant the additional supply chain risk of an external dependency. Removing this package as a dependency and implementing its logic will reduce supply chain risk. What is eval?Package uses eval() which is a dangerous function. This prevents the code from running in certain environments and increases the risk that the code may contain exploits or malicious behavior. Avoid packages that use eval, since this could potentially execute any code. What is network access?This module accesses the network. Packages should remove all network access that is functionally unnecessary. Consumers should audit network access to ensure legitimate use. What is environment variable access?Package accesses environment variables, which may be a sign of credential stuffing or data theft. Packages should be clear about which environment variables they access, and care should be taken to ensure they only access environment variables they claim to. What is dynamic require?Dynamic require can indicate the package is performing dangerous or unsafe dynamic code execution. Packages should avoid dynamic imports when possible. Audit the use of dynamic require to ensure it is not executing malicious or vulnerable code. Take a deeper look at the dependencyTake a moment to review the security alert above. Review the linked package source code to understand the potential risk. Ensure the package is not malicious before proceeding. If you're unsure how to proceed, reach out to your security team or ask the Socket team for help at support [AT] socket [DOT] dev. Remove the packageIf you happen to install a dependency that Socket reports as Known Malware you should immediately remove it and select a different dependency. For other alert types, you may may wish to investigate alternative packages or consider if there are other ways to mitigate the specific risk posed by the dependency. Mark a package as acceptable riskTo ignore an alert, reply with a comment starting with
