Vulert verdict on ikst 0.0.1-security i

Updated on 22 Oct 2026

Careful: 0.0.1-security was published with malicious code in it, not just a bug. Do not install it.

Package health score 15/100
  • Security Malicious code published
  • Maintenance Unmaintained
  • Popularity Little adoption
  • Community Inactive

The current release contains malicious code, which caps this score.

What to do: Do not resolve 0.0.1-security as-is. Check whether you already run an affected release and pin a version the maintainers have re-published. Check what you run: Vulert alerts you when a safe version is published. Monitor it with Vulert →

About ikst

Is ikst safe to use?

Vulert records 2 vulnerabilities for ikst in npm: 1 critical, 1 high, 0 medium and 0 low. 1 of them has no published fix yet, so that is the one to avoid or mitigate. 1 are malicious-package vulnerabilities: the published package itself contained hostile code, not only a bug.

What is ikst's Vulert package health score?

Vulert scores ikst 15/100, which reads as critical. 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 current release contains malicious code, which caps this score.

Is the latest version of ikst affected?

Yes. 0.0.1-security, the version you would install today, has 2 known vulnerabilities, and 1 has no published fix yet. Use an earlier unaffected release, or the workaround each vulnerability lists.

How many vulnerabilities does ikst have?

2 vulnerabilities are recorded for ikst in the npm ecosystem: 1 critical, 1 high, 0 medium and 0 low. The ledger on this page lists the same counts next to the date of the most recent disclosure.

How often are new ikst vulnerabilities disclosed?

0 vulnerabilities were recorded for ikst in the last 12 months, and the oldest entry in this database dates to 24 Jul 2018. Recency matters more than a lifetime total: it shows how actively new issues are being disclosed for the package you are considering.

Which versions of ikst are affected?

Each vulnerability on this page lists the affected version range and the fixed version to move to. Open the vulnerability for the version you actually run — fixes are specific to a release line, not to the package as a whole.

What does a malicious-package vulnerability mean?

It means the published package itself contained hostile code — a backdoor, a credential stealer or similar — rather than only a bug. Registries remove such packages once they are confirmed, so treat any application that resolved an affected version as compromised and rotate the credentials it could reach.

How do I monitor ikst for upcoming vulnerabilities?

Upload the manifest or SBOM for your application at vulert.com/scanner and Vulert keeps checking the ikst version you actually run against new disclosures, then alerts you when one affects it. There is no installation and no source-code access required.
