Research direction
Start by reviewing GHSA-gwr8-m965-83p4 alongside the reported pezzi package history and the security-scan behavior described here. No source files or tests are named; the work is done when the advisory's treatment of this package no longer causes false critical alerts, or the needed advisory change is clearly identified.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
This demo package was published by an authorized pen tester working with Vendavo, Inc. It was not downloaded by anyone; the pezzi package is only consumed from an internal package manager. The pen tester removed the fake pezzi package, and Vendavo took ownership of the org in npm.
The problem is that this creates false critical alerts in product security scans containing the real pezzi package.
