OWASP dependency-check includes an analyzer that will scan Node Package Manager package specification files. The analyzer will collect as much information as it can about the package. The information collected is internally referred to as evidence and is grouped into vendor, product, and version buckets. Other analyzers later use this evidence to identify any Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) identifiers that apply.
Note:_Consider using Retire.js or the Node Security Project auditing tool, nsp instead of, or in addition to OWASP dependency-check to analyze Node.js packages.
