attack surface

Why this package is monitored

The TypeScript compiler reads all project source files during type checking and compilation. A compromised compiler binary can exfiltrate source code or inject code into compiled output files, affecting the production bundle.

Attestd monitors typescript using the following detection sources:

registry

Manually curated advisories in the Attestd registry, verified by a human analyst. Confidence 1.0.

osv

OSV.dev malicious-package advisories with IDs prefixed MAL-. Confidence 0.95.

npm_deprecation

npm package versions with deprecation messages containing targeted attack language such as malicious, backdoor, or compromised. Confidence 0.80.
