Rust Without Crates.io
Creator of Packj [1] here. How do you envision sandboxing/security policies will be specified? Per-lib policies when you've hundreds of dependencies will become overwhelming. Having built an eBPF-based sandbox [2], I anticipate that accuracy will be another challenge here: too restrictive will block functionality, too permissive defeats the purpose.
1. https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj flags malicious/risky NPM/PyPI/RubyGems/Rust/Maven/PHP packages by carrying out static+dynamic+metadata analysis.

A Study of Malicious Code in PyPI Ecosystem
Cool project. How do you feel about projects like OpenSSF scorecards or even the checks that socket.dev do today on these packages to help determine risk?
https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj/blob/main/.packj.yaml
Secondly, what about impersonation where attackers imitate a popular package and its respective metadata?

How to use Podman inside of a container
I built Packj [1] sandboxing for securing “pip/NPM install”. It uses strace for sandboxing and blocks access to sensitive files and limits traffic to known-good IP addresses.

NPM Provenance Public Beta
Great work! This provenance check is going to be very valuable for enforcing supply-chain security. We are working on adding support to check for provenance in Packj.

Show HN: TypeScript Security Scanner
Cool project. Would love to integrate this in Packj [1] as one of the open-source SAST scanners. Will DM you.

Show HN: Coder Guard – Protect Your IDE from Malicious Extensions
Very cool! I've built something similar, but for packages: https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj Would love to talk.

Ask HN: What Are You Working on This Year?
Working on a marketplace (based on Packj [1]) to allow open-source developers to make money by selling "assured" software artifacts.
1. Packj https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj flags malicious and other "risky" open-source dependencies in your software supply chain.

Compromised PyTorch-nightly dependency chain December 30th, 2022
I’ve created Packj sandbox [1] for “safe installation” of PyPI/NPM/Rubygems packages
1. https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj
It DOES NOT require a VM/Container; uses strace. It shows you a preview of file system changes that installation will make and can also block arbitrary network communication during installation (uses an allow-list).

Vulnerability scanner written in Go that uses osv.dev data
Great to see a developer-friendly tool around OSV! Packj [1] uses OSV APIs to report vulnerable PyPI/NPM/Rubygems packages. Disclaimer: I built it.
1. https://github.com/ossillate-inc/packj flags malicious/risky packages.
