Questions

About dependency-check

Is dependency-check safe to use?

Vulert has no vulnerabilities on record for dependency-check in npm at this point. That is a good signal rather than a guarantee: new vulnerabilities are published for packages all the time, so the versions you actually run are still worth monitoring.

What is dependency-check's Vulert package health score?

Vulert scores dependency-check 45/100, which reads as risky. The score weighs the vulnerability record (40), maintenance and release cadence (25), adoption from dependents and stars (20) and community signals such as the OpenSSF scorecard and forks (15). The registry marks the latest release as deprecated, which caps this score.

Which version of dependency-check should I use?
