An extensible, heuristic-based vulnerability scanning tool for installed npm packages. WARNING: npm-scan is still very much in early development and should not be used in production. We are developing more accurate heuristics. We are actively seeking new contributors with ideas for additional heuristics, so please do get in touch :) Another important project you can contribute to is npm-zoo, where past malicious packages are uploaded for research. We need more examples in order to develop better heuristics.
