Detects privilege escalation patterns like setuid, chown root, or sudo with shell commands
setuid Avoid depending on packages that could be subject to typosquatting or name confusion. Verify package ownership, check download counts, and audit the package source before adding dependencies.
Likely FP if the flagged package is a well-known, high-download-count package from a verified publisher.
Detects global installation of packages which affects the host system
npm install -g p Replace npm install -g with a local install (npm install --save-dev) or use npx with a pinned version. Global installs modify the system and risk supply chain attacks.
Likely FP if the global install is for a well-known CLI tool (e.g., typescript, eslint) in setup documentation, though the supply chain risk remains real.
Detects eval() or exec() used for dynamic code execution
eval(' Replace eval()/exec() with a safer alternative such as json.loads(), ast.literal_eval(), or a purpose-built parser.
Likely FP if the matched text contains 'exec' as part of a word (e.g., 'execute', 'execution') rather than an actual eval() or exec() call.
