Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

NPM repository flooded with 15,000 phishing packages
If you don't know the author, signatures do nothing. Anybody can sign their package with some key. Even if you could check the author's identity, that still does very little for you, unless you know them personally.
It makes a lot more sense to use cryptography to verify that releases are not malicious directly. Tools like crev [1], vouch [2], and cargo-vet [3] allow you to trust your colleagues or specific people to review packages before you install them. That way you don't have to trust their authors or package repositories at all.
That seems like a much more viable path forward than expecting package repositories to audit packages or trying to assign trust onto random developers.

Vetting the Cargo
Alternatives to cargo-vet that has been mentioned before here on HN:
- https://github.com/crev-dev/crev
- https://github.com/vouch-dev/vouch
Anyone know of any more alternatives or similar tools already available?

Embedded malware in RC (NPM package)
I've created Vouch in an attempt to address this problem:
https://github.com/vouch-dev/vouch
Vouch lets users create and share reviews for NPM packages. Project dependencies can then be checked against those reviews.
Vouch uses extensions to interface with package ecosystems. It's simple to create a new extension. Extensions currently exist for NPM, PyPi, and Ansible Galaxy.
I'm currently working on a website to index known reviews and publish official reviews.
I hope you guys find it useful! Drop by the Matrix channel if you have any feedback to share: #vouch:matrix.org

Securing PyTorch Models with eBPF
In this blog, I will present secimport — a toolkit for creating and running sandboxed applications in Python that utilizes eBPF (bpftrace) to secure Python runtimes.
- I created a python seccomp sandbox, but per-module in your code.

There is also this, although I haven't tested it yet. The approach is interesting though. https://github.com/avilum/secimport
