Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find outdated npm packages with CVEs?
Run npm audit, or paste your package.json into PackageFix for a live CVE scan with fix versions from OSV.
Is it safe to update all npm dependencies at once?
Patch and minor updates (4.17.1 → 4.17.21) are generally safe. Major version bumps may have breaking changes — review changelogs first.
What is the difference between npm outdated and npm audit?
npm outdated shows all available updates. npm audit shows only CVE-flagged packages. PackageFix combines both: CVE scan + fix versions in one step.
How often should I update npm dependencies?
At minimum monthly, and immediately when CISA adds a package to the KEV catalog.
