Trusty - Search for an open source package to understand its trustworthiness based on activity, provenance, and more. Brought to you by the founders of projects such as Kubernetes and Sigstore. Hey, Luke here the CTO of stacklok. This is an early experimental preview of Trusty. We use statistical analysis to observe millions of packages and found that Malware typically follows certain patterns. We found this tool really useful to help understand the packages we our pulling into our software and wanted to share it with others. It's still early in and we have a lot more features that will be…

Pipask is a drop-in replacement for pip that addresses a serious security flaw: standard pip executes arbitrary code from source distributions during dependency resolution, without warning or consent. Pipask retrieves metadata through PyPI's JSON API first, then checks repository popularity, download counts, package age, and known vulnerabilities before allowing installation. It presents you with a pretty report and asks for you consent with installation, giving you control over what code runs on your system. More details in the intro blog post:…

Hello all, Very excited to share this project with you all! Panoptisch scans your Python file or module to find it's imports (aka dependencies) and recursively does so for all dependencies and sub-dependencies. It then generates a dependency tree in JSON for you to parse and enforce import policies. Supply chain attacks are no joke, and this is one way to transparently analyze your dependencies to see if any malicious imports are taking place. For example, your yaml parser, nor it's sub-dependencies should import socket, or sys. Panoptisch is in early stages, with known limitations (for…

In light of the ongoing npm supply chain compromises, I built safe-install: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@gkiely/safe-install It brings a couple of protections I wanted from npm but are not built in. Similar to Bun’s trusted dependencies, it lets you disable install scripts by default and define a list of dependencies that are allowed to run build/install scripts: https://bun.com/docs/guides/install/trusted It also supports blocking exotic sub-dependencies, similar to pnpm’s `blockExoticSubdeps` setting:…
