Why

  • warnSuspicious behaviour

    Version 0.15.2 was published without npm provenance attestations, but the earlier version 0.12.0 had them. Losing provenance after previous versions carried it can indicate a publish made outside the normal CI-attested flow, as seen in the nx compromise.

  • warnProvenance lost

    This version was published without build provenance, but 0.12.0 was published with it. Provenance is produced by the repository's CI identity rather than by the token used to publish, so an attacker holding a stolen publishing token can release a version and cannot attest it. A maintainer who changed their release workflow produces the same pattern, so confirm which one this is before acting.

Provenance

A registry signature proves the registry served these bytes unaltered. Build provenance proves which workflow built them from which commit; a stolen publishing token can fake the first but not the second.

Signature
Verified against the registry's key
Build provenance
None, though 0.12.0 had it

What the code does

On its own this is weak signal: plenty of honest libraries read files or talk to the network. What PkgFire watches is a release gaining something the one before it did not.
