How this service works
Scan a dependency manifest for known-vulnerable and confirmed-malicious packages. POST /v1/scan with a raw lockfile or a components array and get per-dependency verdicts (malicious, vulnerable, suspicious, clean) from OSV.dev and the OpenSSF Malicious Packages feed, each with a summary and snapshot timestamp. Pay per request in USDC; no account, no API key.
Output
A per-dependency list of verdicts (malicious, vulnerable, suspicious, or clean), each with an advisory summary, the data source (OSV.dev or OpenSSF Malicious Packages), and a snapshot timestamp indicating when the advisory data was last updated.
Example use cases
Pre-deploy supply chain audit
“Before I ship this release, scan my requirements.txt for any known-malicious or vulnerable Python packages — I want to see a verdict for every dependency with a summary of any issues found.”
CI security gate for Node project
“Check this package-lock.json for any npm packages flagged as malicious or vulnerable — only flag advisories newer than 2024-01-01 so I can focus on recent threats in my CI pipeline.”
Cargo dependency health check
“Run a security scan on my Cargo.lock — I want to know which Rust crates have known vulnerabilities or have been flagged as malicious, and turn on heuristics to catch suspicious packages too.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agent.pocket.network/v1/taint-check?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, pay-per-call dependency security scan without setting up an account or API key — especially useful for ephemeral CI/CD pipelines, agent workflows, or one-off audits. It is ideal when you need combined coverage from both OSV.dev vulnerability data and the OpenSSF Malicious Packages feed in a single call, with optional heuristics for typosquatting and install-script signals. Prefer it over alternatives when you want to scan raw lockfiles directly without pre-processing.
Side effects
- Unsupported lockfile format returns a validation error
- Malformed or unparseable lockfile content results in a parse error
- Packages not found in OSV.dev or OpenSSF are returned as clean with no advisory data
- Very large lockfiles may time out or be rejected if they exceed size limits
- Stale snapshot timestamps may mean very recent advisories are not yet reflected
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC results in a 402 Payment Required response
