Maintainer risk. License landmines. Typosquatting. Supply chain attacks. Complete visibility—backed by $1M+ warranty.
The xz Utils backdoor was a compromised maintainer – three years of social engineering, CVSS 10.0 severity. Shai-Hulud was a malicious install script that hit 1,900+ npm packages. Neither showed up in vulnerability databases until after the damage.
Your supply chain has risks beyond CVEs: abandoned packages, single-maintainer projects, typosquatted names, license violations, code that doesn’t match its source.
