Uptime Kuma 2.5.0 waits two weeks before trusting a new npm package

Uptime Kuma 2.5.0, a self-hosted monitoring tool with nearly 90,000 GitHub stars, introduced a 14-day cooldown period before trusting newly published npm packages. This security measure aims to reduce the risk of installing malicious or compromised dependencies early in their publication lifecycle.

Why it matters: DevOps and platform teams using Uptime Kuma should understand this change affects dependency installation timing; practitioners evaluating npm security practices can reference this as a model for supply-chain risk mitigation.
