The open source library holding up your stack might have one maintainer
A new research paper examines how open source libraries vary dramatically in their maintenance models and governance, from well-resourced projects to those maintained by a single person in spare time. Despite carrying the same label, these differences can significantly affect the behavior and security posture of software that depends on them.
Why it matters: Development teams need to assess the maintenance status and resource levels of open source dependencies to understand the risk of supply chain vulnerabilities, unpatched flaws, and abandonment that could affect their own products and customers.
