## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

The package's package.json declares its dependency "@openai/codex" as a direct tarball URL: https://gitcode.com/api/v5/repos/OpenHarmonyPCDeveloper/JavaScript\_Package\_For\_HarmonyOS/raw/packages/openai-codex-0.140.0.tgz?ref=main. The reference is mutable (branch 'main', no commit SHA, no integrity hash) and is hosted by a third-party org (OpenHarmonyPCDeveloper on gitcode.com) that is not the @openai publisher. On npm install, this tarball is fetched and placed into the installer's node\_modules under the well-known @openai/codex name, so any code that resolves '@openai/codex' — including this package's own bin wrapper (\`await import('@openai/codex/bin/codex.js')\`) — loads content controlled by that third-party org rather than OpenAI. Because resolution happens through the dependencies field rather than a lifecycle script, \`npm install --ignore-scripts\` does not mitigate. The mutable branch reference means the content served at that URL can change at any time without a package republish.
