Summary
Togoder Security scanned the npm package process@0.11.10 on Oct 4, 2026. An AI review of 3 source files produced 1 medium severity finding. The overall verdict is medium: the findings flag risky but common patterns (dynamic code, unsafe defaults, broad file or network access) rather than confirmed malware.
Findings 1
Dynamic code execution
NPS-2E371BA30C54
The vmtest function reads './browser.js' and executes its contents in a new VM context using vm.Script and script.runInNewContext. This dynamic execution could be a vector for code injection, though in this context it appears to be for testing purposes.
Files reviewed
| File | Verdict | What the reviewer saw |
|---|---|---|
| test.js | medium | Test file uses dynamic code execution via vm module to test browser.js, but no malicious patterns were detected; it appears to be a legitimate test suite. |
| browser.js | safe | No malicious patterns detected; the file is a standard browser shim for Node.js process module. |
| index.js | safe | The file simply re-exports the Node.js global process object and contains no malicious patterns. |
