package nameopenai
maintainerOpenAI

The official OpenAI JavaScript SDK for Node.js and browser environments. It is used in Next.js applications, Vercel AI SDK integrations, and serverless API routes that proxy OpenAI model calls. The SDK reads `OPENAI_API_KEY` from environment variables and handles streaming, function calling, and batch requests.

attack surface

Why this package is monitored

The OpenAI JS SDK resolves OPENAI_API_KEY as soon as the client module initializes in Node or edge routes. Tampering at that point can steal the key and stream or completion payloads without changing the visible API surface.

Attestd monitors openai using the following detection sources:

registry

Manually curated advisories in the Attestd registry, verified by a human analyst. Confidence 1.0.

osv

OSV.dev malicious-package advisories with IDs prefixed MAL-. Confidence 0.95.

npm_deprecation

npm package versions with deprecation messages containing targeted attack language such as malicious, backdoor, or compromised. Confidence 0.80.
