Why

  • warnSuspicious behaviour

    Detects access to sensitive files (credentials, configs, keys)

  • warnSuspicious behaviour

    Detects unicode homoglyphs and uncommon characters used for obfuscation

  • warnSuspicious behaviour

    Detects suspicious imports in setup.py: network, system, or crypto libraries that have no place in a build script

  • warnSuspicious behaviour

    Possible credential in the published package: generic-api-key

  • warnRelease cooldown

    Published less than an hour ago, inside the 7-day cooldown. Most malicious releases are pulled within hours of publication, so a version this new has not yet had time to be caught.

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.
