Abstract

This project aims to understand characteristics of direct and transitive dependencies in the VSCode ecosystem and understand the security vulnerabilities of these dependencies. We use static analysis to transitively identify dependencies of VSCode extensions. Then we will identify potential vulnerabilities that these dependencies impose.
