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).

Is the latest version of prebid-universal-creative affected?

Yes. 1.18.0, the version you would install today, has 2 known vulnerabilities, and 2 has no published fix yet. Use an earlier unaffected release, or the workaround each vulnerability lists.

Which version of prebid-universal-creative should I use?

1.18.0 is the version Vulert recommends for the affected releases. The version table above lists every release with the vulnerabilities recorded against it, so you can confirm the range you actually run.

How many vulnerabilities does prebid-universal-creative have?

2 vulnerabilities are recorded for prebid-universal-creative in the npm ecosystem: 2 critical, 0 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 prebid-universal-creative vulnerabilities disclosed?

0 vulnerabilities were recorded for prebid-universal-creative in the last 12 months, and the oldest entry in this database dates to 11 Sep 2025. 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 prebid-universal-creative 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 prebid-universal-creative for upcoming vulnerabilities?

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