Code execution that may not be so obvious could be the preLaunchTask that runs before starting the app and can run a build that has an extra task executing arbitrary code unrelated to the build. What about the npm module that steals your crypto wallet private keys? Make a simple edit and a malicious linter is loaded from the node_modules folder, instead of the one that is installed globally. Even reading the code can be deceptive, attackers can use Unicode hacks to hide malicious code in plain sight. Heck, you don't even have to open any source code to be owned.
