False Positive: CWE-506 Flag on Project Packages
Hello,
We’ve noticed that three of our project libraries have been flagged under CWE-506: Embedded Malicious Code in the GitHub security advisories. After reviewing the codebase and package history, we believe this is a false positive.
There is no obfuscation, suspicious behavior, or embedded malicious code present in these packages. We suspect this flag may have been triggered erroneously—possibly due to a misinterpretation of certain implementation patterns or dependencies.

We kindly request a review of these advisories, and we’re happy to provide any clarifications or code details needed to assist in resolving this matter.
Thanks in advance for your attention and support!
Hi @Sina-KH, if you haven't done so already, contact https://www.npmjs.com/support to initiate a namespace claim and let npm support know that you haven't found evidence of malicious activity in mtw-capacitor-usb-hid, native-bottom-sheet, or eslint-config-mytonwallet. Thanks for reaching out and have a great week!
@Sina-KH Can you maybe summarize your experience with NPMjs? This kind of alerts seem to get more common and it would be good to know that at least NPMjs cares.
