Use when reviewing a project's security posture, setting up CI pipelines, or responding to a reported vulnerability in a dependency.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Audit dependencies for known vulnerabilities
Third-party packages are the most common attack surface in modern web applications. The 2021 Log4Shell incident, the 2022 node-ipc supply-chain attack, and countless npm package hijackings demonstrate that a single vulnerable transitive dependency can compromise every application that depends on it. Automated, continuous scanning drastically reduces the window between a CVE being published and your team being aware of it.
## Quick Reference
- Run pnpm audit (or npm audit) before every production deployment
- Integrate automated dependency scanning in CI (GitHub Dependabot or Snyk)
- Treat critical and high severity findings as release blockers
- Pin transitive dependencies with a lock file committed to version control
## Check
Check the project's dependencies for known security vulnerabilities using the package manager audit command.
## Fix
Upgrade, patch, or replace vulnerable dependencies and configure automated scanning in the CI pipeline.
## Explain
Explain how supply-chain attacks work and why dependency auditing is a critical part of modern application security.
## Code Review

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.4b0ddb9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
