🚨 Potential security issues detected. Learn more about Socket for GitHub ↗︎ To accept the risk, merge this PR and you will not be notified again. Next stepsWhat is debug access?Uses debug, reflection and dynamic code execution features. Removing the use of debug will reduce the risk of any reflection and dynamic code execution. What is dynamic code execution?Package uses dynamic code execution (e.g., eval()), which is a dangerous practice. This can prevent the code from running in certain environments and increases the risk that the code may contain exploits or malicious behavior. Avoid packages that use dynamic code execution like eval(), since this could potentially execute any code. What is new author?A new npm collaborator published a version of the package for the first time. New collaborators are usually benign additions to a project, but do indicate a change to the security surface area of a package. Scrutinize new collaborator additions to packages because they now have the ability to publish code into your dependency tree. Packages should avoid frequent or unnecessary additions or changes to publishing rights. What is unstable ownership?A new collaborator has begun publishing package versions. Package stability and security risk may be elevated. Try to reduce the number of authors you depend on to reduce the risk to malicious actors gaining access to your supply chain. Packages should remove inactive collaborators with publishing rights from packages on npm. 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 are unpopular packages?This package is not very popular. Unpopular packages may have less maintenance and contain other problems. 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
