What is an install script?

Install scripts are run when the package is installed. The majority of malware in npm is hidden in install scripts.

Packages should not be running non-essential scripts during install and there are often solutions to problems people solve with install scripts that can be run at publish time instead.

Take a deeper look at the dependency

Take a moment to review the security alert above. Review the linked package source code to understand the potential risk. Ensure the package is not malicious before proceeding. If you're unsure how to proceed, reach out to your security team or ask the Socket team for help at support [AT] socket [DOT] dev.

Remove the package

If you happen to install a dependency that Socket reports as Known Malware you should immediately remove it and select a different dependency. For other alert types, you may may wish to investigate alternative packages or consider if there are other ways to mitigate the specific risk posed by the dependency.

Mark a package as acceptable risk

To ignore an alert, reply with a comment starting with @SocketSecurity ignore followed by a space separated list of ecosystem/package-name@version specifiers. e.g. @SocketSecurity ignore npm/foo@1.0.0 or ignore all packages with @SocketSecurity ignore-all

It seems after this change which indirectly depends on npm/node-datachannel@0.7.0, the total dependency size has shot up substantially from this dependency alone (likely due to the new compilation steps)

In previous versions, web-streams-polyfill was the biggest dependency.

I think it's a good idea to take note of this.

EDIT:

RUN mkdir -p node-datachannel/build/Release/ && \
    mv node_modules/node-datachannel/package.json node_modules/node-datachannel/lib node-datachannel/ && \
    mv node_modules/node-datachannel/build/Release/node_datachannel.node node-datachannel/build/Release/ && \
    rm -rf node_modules/node-datachannel/ && \
    mv node-datachannel node_modules/

For now, I'm adding this to my Docker image build process after running install to remove all unused remnants of the build process

not sure what to tell you

Hmm that's very weird, maybe it's only on OSes that require compilation or some sort (Alpine Linux in this case)

Compilation seems to pulls the entire git repository of node-datachannel and that is where the bulk of the remnant files.

I did notice there was a prebuilt folder in the node module folder maybe it's using that for Windows and compiles on Linux.

I think this is something to bring up with node-datachannel, not webtorrent

Yep do agree, will raise an issue there.
