ci: add npmscan dependency security check by salemalem · Pull Request #9786 · ant-design/pro-components

salemalem · 2026-11-01T13:31:31Z

What does this PR do?

Adds a standalone .github/workflows/npmscan.yml that runs npmscan-action on pull requests. It diffs the lockfile between the PR base and head and flags supply-chain red flags in the changed dependencies: newly added install scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall), repointed or swapped tarballs (URL/integrity changes), added or changed overrides/resolutions, and known vulnerabilities in newly introduced versions.

Why?

Malicious package versions usually arrive through lockfile changes in otherwise ordinary PRs, where a reviewer rarely reads the lockfile diff. This check summarises what changed so those entries stand out.

Configuration notes

Non-blocking: mode: warn and fail-on-error: false, so it reports findings but never fails CI.
Pinned: the action is pinned to a full commit SHA, not a floating tag.
Scoped: one new file; no existing workflows are touched. The job only needs contents: read (plus pull-requests: write to post a single summary comment; on fork PRs the token is read-only, so findings go to annotations and the job summary instead).

Disclosure

I maintain npmscan and npmscan-action, so I have an interest in this. If it isn't a fit for the project, please feel free to close; no hard feelings.

Walkthrough

新增 NPMscan 工作流。指定的拉取请求事件和文件变更会触发扫描。工作流扫描 package.json 和 pnpm-lock.yaml，并配置权限、警告模式、问题评论和错误处理。

Changes: 依赖安全扫描

Layer / File(s)	Summary
配置扫描触发与执行 `.github/workflows/npmscan.yml`	新增工作流，按指定拉取请求事件和文件路径触发。任务设置内容读取和拉取请求写入权限，并将运行时间限制为 15 分钟。检出步骤不保留凭据。固定版本的 NPMscan Action 扫描依赖文件，采用警告模式，在发现问题时发表评论，且错误不会导致任务失败。

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: Low · up to ab4b0

The workflow is mergeable with a bounded limitation: changing a PR’s base branch can leave dependency findings stale until another qualifying event triggers a scan.

5-5: Minor · Potential issue · Low value

The selected pull-request event types exclude edited, so changing a PR's base branch may leave its previous scan result in place even though the dependency diff has changed.

Newly introduced dependencies relative to the new base may remain unreported.

This can occur when: A PR containing dependency changes is retargeted to another base branch without a subsequent push or reopen.

Please use a scanner revision that reads only the intended dependency files before enabling this workflow on pull requests.

[P1] Reject symlinked dependency files before scanning. The pinned action uses -f and cp on the PR checkout, both of which follow symlinks, then uploads the copied bytes to npmscan.com. A PR can therefore make this step send runner-local data outside GitHub. Please reject symlinks and other non-regular Git entries before invoking the scanner, or use a pinned scanner revision that validates the Git mode and reads the blobs directly.

@chenshuai2144 hey, I am from Kazakhstan but currently traveling in Urumqi. can I add your WeChat just for fun by any chance? also reviewing the stuff you pointed out.

@chenshuai2144

The PR side of each dependency file was read from the checkout with `[ -f ]` and `cp`, which follow symlinks. A PR could commit the lockfile as a symlink to another file on the runner (for example /proc/self/environ, which holds GH_TOKEN) and the action would upload it to npmscan.com. Both sides are now read with `git cat-file blob` after checking the git mode with `git ls-tree`. A symlink or submodule is reported as a scan error and nothing is read or sent; a path under a symlinked directory is "not found". Annotation line lookup reads the blob too. Reported by @chenshuai2144 in ant-design/pro-components#9786. Agent: claude-opus-5.5

v1.4.1 reads dependency files from git and never follows symlinks. Earlier versions copied the PR's lockfile with cp, so a PR could replace it with a symlink to another file on the runner and have that file uploaded. Release notes: https://github.com/NPMscan/npmscan-action/releases/tag/v1.4.1

salemalem · 2026-11-09T11:06:18Z

Thanks for catching this. You're right, and it affected every earlier version of the action, not only v1.4.0.

It's fixed in v1.4.1 (NPMscan/npmscan-action@e2ff8c9), and this PR now pins that commit:

Both sides are read from git with git cat-file blob, after git ls-tree confirms the path is a regular file (mode 100644/100755). Nothing is read from the checkout on disk.
A symlink or submodule is reported as a scan error, and nothing is read or sent. A path under a symlinked directory is reported as not found.
The annotation line lookup reads the blob too, so no part of the action reads the dependency file from disk anymore.
New tests cover a lockfile swapped for a symlink to a secret file (no request is made), a symlink on the base side, a symlinked parent directory, and edits made after checkout. All four fail on v1.4.0 and pass on v1.4.1: tests/run.sh.

I credited you in the release notes. Could you take another look when you have a moment?
