ethers
A complete and compact Ethereum library, for dapps, wallets and any other tools.
Supply chain provenance
Status for the latest visible version.
Without SLSA provenance there is no cryptographic link between this tarball and the public source — the axios compromise (March 2026) relied on exactly this gap.

Accepted risks
Findings the reviewer chose to accept rather than block on.
| Source | Rule | Reason | Accepted by | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| semgrep | semgrep:api-obfuscation-reflect | AI (semgrep): Reflect.get() is used in ethers.js ABI coder Proxy traps — standard JS pattern for intercepting property access, not obfuscation. Stable for this package. | ai | |
| semgrep | semgrep:base64-decode | AI (semgrep): Base64 decode is a standard utility for binary data handling in Ethereum operations (e.g., encoding calldata). Not malicious; stable for this package. | ai | |
| bogus-package | bogus-package | AI (bogus-package): ethers v6 is a known major version migration published under the same 'ethers' package name. Inflated semver and sparse README are artifacts of the v6 launch, not spam indicators. | ai | |
| phantom-deps | phantom-dep:@types/node | AI (phantom-deps): @types/node is intentionally included in ethers.js runtime deps for type augmentation; known packaging quirk of this library. | ai |
