Suggestion

An AI system found a low-risk anomaly in this package. It may still be fine to use, but you should check that it is safe before proceeding.

Information

This alert indicates that Socket's AI-powered threat detection system has flagged uncommon or unexpected patterns in the package code. These patterns are low-risk and may not represent vulnerabilities or malicious behavior but should be reviewed for safety.

AI-based analysis tools identify patterns in code that deviate from common practices or expected functionality. These anomalies might include:

  • Uncommon coding structures.
  • Unexpected or unusual logic that may not align with typical usage.
  • Non-standard patterns that could be worth noting for clarity or verification.

The AI system has flagged this package as containing such patterns, but these are not considered vulnerabilities, malware, or significant risks.

Recommended actions

  1. Review the AI Description:
    • Read the description provided by the AI to understand the flagged pattern or behavior.
    • Determine if the flagged behavior aligns with the package's expected functionality.
  2. Check for Clarity:
    • Assess whether the flagged pattern makes sense for the context of the package or if it could introduce unintended behaviors.
    • Confirm the code adheres to your project's standards or requirements.
  3. Validate Usage:
    • If the flagged behavior seems reasonable and expected, proceed with using the package.
    • If it raises questions about compatibility or functionality, consider a more detailed review.
  4. Minimal Effort Required:
    • There is no need for extensive investigation or deep testing unless the flagged behavior directly impacts critical functionality or appears obviously incorrect.

Detection Method

This alert highlights low-risk, uncommon patterns rather than significant issues. Use the provided description to determine if the package can be safely used without requiring extensive effort or investigation.
