A curated awesome-list of npm package manager security best practices, covering safe-by-default CLI options, supply chain attack hardening, and secure dependency resolution. It includes copy-paste secure configurations for npm, pnpm, and bun package managers.

Use cases

  • harden npm against supply chain attacks
  • disable postinstall scripts safely
  • block recently published npm packages
  • secure .npmrc configuration examples
  • mitigate shai-hulud style npm compromises
  • vet npm package dependencies for security
  • configure pnpm security settings

When to choose

  • you maintain Node.js projects and want to reduce npm supply chain risk
  • you need practical, copy-paste package manager security configs
  • you want a curated reference of npm security practices

When to avoid

  • you need an automated security scanning tool rather than guidance
  • you are not using npm, pnpm, or bun as your package manager
