I built an open source python dependency scanner that will scan and flag packages with known exploit CVEs(CISA's Known Exploited list and FIRST EPSS) and unmaintained packages that have not had a release or commit in 2 years. Theres also claude hook that will make your AI agent not install these type of packages included in this repo. The full mechanism is in the readme of the project, this was just a brief summary.
the packages get flagged or escalated if its at a trust boundary for example if it parses, decodes or authenticates data that an attacker can influence and have either a known CVE or is basically unmaintained. Non trust boundary packages also get reported but not escalated. I welcome contributions to the repo to make it more useful. More info can be found in the readme and docs attached to it.
