## Public findings

### 1. Low: Eval
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 45.0%
- **Path:** dist/src/utils/config-utils.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@nx/devkit@23.1.3/dist/src/utils/config-utils.js>)

Package source references a known benign dynamic code generation pattern.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L16: const path_1 = require("path");
L17: exports.dynamicImport = new Function('modulePath', 'return import(modulePath);');
L18: async function loadConfigFile(configFilePath, tsconfigFileNames) {
```

### 2. Medium: Dynamic Require
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%
- **Path:** dist/internal.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@nx/devkit@23.1.3/dist/internal.js>)

Package source references dynamic require/import behavior.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
L6: exports.workspaceRootInner = exports.workspaceDataDirectory = exports.validateOutputs = exports.unparse = exports.transformLegacyOutputs = exports.toOldFormat = exports.toNewFormat...
L7: var devkit_internals_1 = require("nx/src/devkit-internals");
L8: Object.defineProperty(exports, "signalToCode", { enumerable: true, get: function () { return devkit_internals_1.signalToCode; } });
```

### 3. Medium: Environment Vars
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 75.0%

Package source references environment variables.

### 4. Low: Filesystem
- **Category:** Source
- **Confidence:** 70.0%

Package source references filesystem APIs.

### 5. Low: Url Strings
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 65.0%

Package source contains URL literals.

### 6. High: Semantic Analysis Limited
- **Category:** Scanner Coverage
- **Confidence:** 100.0%
- **Path:** dist/src/utils/add-plugin.js\#virtual:normalized:round1
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@nx/devkit@23.1.3/dist/src/utils/add-plugin.js%23virtual%3Anormalized%3Around1>)

A bounded semantic-analysis stage reached its safety limit; remaining detectors completed, but this package requires AI review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):
