Significant: one contributor carries the recent work.

1 of 6 assessable dimensions carries significant findings, 4 are adequate and 1 is strong. 2 findings are worth checking first. 17 findings, each with its evidence: the commit, path and lines it rests on, or, when something is missing, what was looked for. One dimension cannot be assessed without an acquirer.

What matters most

Worth checking first

Borehole's proprietary scoring is calibrated across hundreds of repositories. Each finding here reads significant, but its check has not yet held up often enough in that calibration to rate significant on its own. If one holds when someone checks it, it is significant.

src/main/webapp/alfio-admin-v1/bower_components/angular-bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls.js is 8,503 lines, 193× this codebase's median file

adequate

The median source file here is 44 lines. 19 files exceed 1,000 lines, the largest being 8,503. Size is not a defect on its own — some problems genuinely live in one place — but these are where merge conflicts, review fatigue and single-owner knowledge concentrate, and they are the first thing that slows an inheriting engineer down. Measured against its own codebase's median, it is larger than 90% of 382 surveyed projects' largest files.

Bus factor 1: recent work is concentrated in one contributor

significant findings

In the last 24 months, one contributor authored three-quarters or more of 179 non-merge commits among 14 authors; across all history, more than half of 3,866. This is the single most expensive thing to discover after closing, and the repository cannot tell you whether that person is part of the transaction.

44 SQL statements built from strings

adequate worth checking first

44 places in product code build SQL by formatting or joining strings rather than passing parameters, and in 41 of them a value, not a table or column name, goes into the string. Where any of those values comes from a request, it is an injection point. Each site needs a look; the fix, parameters, is small.

The check that found this reads significant, but it has not yet held up often enough in Borehole's calibration to rate a finding significant on its own. Opening src/main/java/alfio/db/PGSQL/V22_1_14_8__MigrateMailchimp.java:90 and the 2 other files it cites settles it. If it holds when someone checks it, this finding is significant.

57 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 15 high or critical in what ships

adequate worth checking first

57 of 1,132 locked dependencies match 153 published advisories in OSV, 83 of them rated high or critical. A lockfile says which version is installed, not whether the flawed code is reachable from this product, so each needs a look. Most are fixed by an upgrade, and the advisory names the version.

05.27

The build runs third-party code it does not pin

adequate

8 third-party CI actions are referenced by a tag or branch rather than a commit, so they run whatever that tag points to on the day. Tags have been moved to malicious commits in real supply-chain attacks, and a piped script is whatever the server returns that minute. Pinning to a commit is the fix, and it is small.

11 advisories against this project in the last 24 months, 4 high or critical

adequate

The newest was published on 2026-09-18. A project that publishes advisories is telling its users about its fixes, and the count and pace say how much security work it carries. Whether 11 of them are fixed in the code you ship could not be told from this history: its version is only known to be at least 1.14.1. Answer lives in: the release you run, set against each fixed version.

Not rated: structurally not assessable from a repository. What a person adds here.

Check it on the running system

9 checks against the running system follow from the findings above: what a buyer's engineer will try, how to run it first, and what to have ready. A paid survey of this repository includes them. See the tiers.

A paid survey of a public repository is also reviewed: a language model reads each finding against the code and withdraws only findings it judges the code contradicts, each listed with its reason. The review is a language model's reading of the findings against the code, and it can be wrong. It never adds a finding, never raises a band, and never removes a finding from a proven check or an advisory that affects the surveyed version.

What a person adds

The survey reads what the repository can show. The code cannot settle these questions, and on them this report states nothing. Each says where its answer lives: your own engineer, the company, or an assessor you choose can settle it. Questions marked measured open with something this repository shows.

A human assessment is Borehole's own paid service, €12,000+ (total price is determined per engagement; travel billed at cost). It is not independent of this report: the same business produced both. It is a separate contract, with its own scope, terms and reliance.

Embed the badge

Tied to this commit and this date, and it fades after 90 days — an honest badge is one that expires. A repository with significant findings gets a neutral "read" badge rather than a red one: the library is where the range is visible, not someone else's README.

Anyone can check this report against the authoritative record — click the stamp, or enter A4ZR-NPYP-4JY1 at borehole.dev/verify.

The code commits to the 106 checks this run performed, the bands they produced, and the commit they were read at. It does not cover checks written since.

Where this scan ran

This scan ran on ordinary cloud infrastructure (cloud-run), not in a hardware-isolated confidential VM. Nothing about it is attested by Google.

What an attested survey proves, and what it does not.

What this scan did with the repository — 7 steps

Written by the steps themselves as they ran, not described afterwards. A hand-written account of a data flow drifts the first time somebody changes the flow and not the account.

An automated reading of a repository's code and its history up to one commit, with public advisory records. It may be wrong, it is not legal, financial, investment or security advice, and it does not replace diligence by a qualified person.
