Installing and using osv-scanner: find CVEs in your dependencies automatically
osv-scanner scans lockfiles and containers to surface CVEs in your dependencies, free. This walks through install, run, and CI integration, plus when to use it vs npm/pnpm audit vs Dependabot. This site's view: which tool fits depends on your setup. Use osv-scanner on multi-ecosystem or GitHub-free projects, and the bundled pnpm audit for a single npm tree.
