No SLSA provenance npm registry signatures gitHead linked

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.

SourceRuleReasonAccepted byWhen
npm-metadata bundled-binaries AI (npm-metadata): Prebuilt ZXingObjC xcframework binaries for iOS barcode scanning; expected for this native camera package. ai
provenance missing-githead AI (provenance): expo-camera canary builds are published from a different pipeline than stable releases; missing gitHead is expected for this package's canary workflow. ai
provenance no-provenance AI (provenance): Canary pre-release builds from the Expo monorepo do not go through the same provenance-attesting CI as stable releases; acceptable given publisher track record. ai
publish-pattern suspicious-version-number AI (publish-pattern): Expo canary releases consistently use date-stamped version strings (e.g., 55.0.x-canary-YYYYMMDD-hash); this pattern is standard for the expo ecosystem and not indicative of malice. ai
phantom-deps phantom-dep:expo-permissions-interface AI (phantom-deps): Interface package is part of Expo's modular architecture; declared and used indirectly through config. ai
phantom-deps phantom-dep:expo-camera-interface AI (phantom-deps): Interface package is part of Expo's modular architecture; declared and used indirectly through config. ai
phantom-deps phantom-dep:expo-file-system-interface AI (phantom-deps): Interface package is part of Expo's modular architecture; declared and used indirectly through config. ai
phantom-deps phantom-dep:expo-face-detector-interface AI (phantom-deps): Interface package is part of Expo's modular architecture; declared and used indirectly through config. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-added AI (maintainer-change): New maintainer philpl is associated with the Expo organization; this is a legitimate team addition for a major Expo SDK package. ai
maintainer-change maintainer-removed AI (maintainer-change): Maintainer roster changes are routine for a large org like 650 Industries/Expo; no evidence of hostile takeover. ai
provenance publisher-changed AI (provenance): brentvatne is a well-known Expo core team member publishing from the official expo/expo monorepo; publisher changes within the Expo org are routine and expected. ai
dependencies unvetted-peer-dep:react-native AI (dependencies): react-native is the expected peer dependency for React Native libraries; stable for this package. ai
dependencies unvetted-peer-dep:expo AI (dependencies): expo is the expected peer dependency for expo-camera; part of the official Expo SDK ecosystem. ai
dependencies unvetted-dep:barcode-detector AI (dependencies): barcode-detector is a legitimate runtime dependency for camera barcode detection; stable for this package. ai

v56.0.8

2 findings
INFO No provenance attestation provenance

[Accepted risk] Package was published without Sigstore provenance. Consider requesting the maintainer enable provenance via CI/CD.

INFO Publisher changed: brentvatne → alanhughes (on 2026-06-10, known maintainer) provenance

This version was published by a different npm account (alanhughes) than the most recent previously approved version (brentvatne) on 2026-06-10, but alanhughes is listed as a maintainer on prior approved versions (matched on name). This looks like a manual publish by a known maintainer rather than a publisher change. Recorded as INFO for audit trail.
