AGPL-3.0 since 2022-05-09: open source; offering it over a network counts as distributing it, so a hosted product's changes must be published.

106 checks ran across 6 assessable dimensions. 1 finding is worth checking first. 13 findings, each with evidence. One dimension cannot be assessed without an acquirer.

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.

3 base images float: no version, or `latest`

adequate

3 of 7 `FROM` lines in product Dockerfiles name an image without a version, or with `latest`. Each build pulls whatever the registry serves that day, so the image that ships can change without a commit, and last month's build cannot be reproduced. Pin a version, or a digest.

Evidence
docker/Dockerfile docker/Dockerfile:48 — base image without a version
docker/Dockerfile docker/Dockerfile:95 — base image without a version
docker/Dockerfile docker/Dockerfile:126 — base image without a version

frontend/app/components/Domain/Recipe/RecipePage/RecipePageParts/RecipePageInstructions.vue is 1,130 lines, 17× this codebase's median file

adequate

The median source file here is 64 lines. 1 file exceed 1,000 lines, the largest being 1,130. 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.

A note that does not affect this rating: measured against its own codebase's median, it is below the 85th percentile of 382 surveyed projects' largest files, where this check begins to count.

Tests are retried until they pass

adequate

The suite is configured to retry failing tests (tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts). A retry turns a flaky test green without saying why it failed, so a green build means the tests passed eventually. Ask how many retries a typical run needs, and which tests need them.

A note that does not affect this rating: notes like it are common in well-run projects.

2 credential-shaped strings in the tree sit in tests, examples, documentation or local development settings

adequate

Strings shaped like credentials appear only where fakes are usual: test fixtures, examples, documentation, placeholders and local stacks. They are almost always fakes. Ask someone to confirm that none of them works anywhere, because a real key in a development file is still a real key.

Evidence
AWS access key 2 cited: AWS access key, where fakes are usual

05.6

1 Dockerfile runs the application as root

adequate

No USER instruction switches away from root, so the process runs with full privileges inside the container. It is a one-line fix and an ordinary expectation, which is why its absence is worth asking about: it usually says more about whether anyone has reviewed the deployment than about this container specifically.

Evidence

8 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 2 high or critical in what ships

adequate worth checking first

8 of 1,603 locked dependencies match 12 published advisories in OSV, 6 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.

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 uv.lock and the 1 other file it cites settles it. If it holds when someone checks it, this finding is significant.

Evidence
uv.lock uv.lock — nltk 3.10.3: GHSA-8mgp-746c-j5xp (high)
frontend/pnpm-lock.yaml frontend/pnpm-lock.yaml — braces 3.0.3: GHSA-vfj7-8cjw-p6xm (high)

05.27

The build runs third-party code it does not pin

adequate

15 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.

8 places insert HTML from a variable without sanitising it

adequate

8 places set HTML from a value that is neither a literal nor passed through a sanitiser. Where the value can come from a user, that is stored cross-site scripting, and it is the first thing a buyer's security review looks for in a frontend.

A note that does not affect this rating: in Borehole's calibration, this check's notes were usually true but overstated.

Relicensed: MIT → AGPL-3.0 (2022-05-09)

adequate

The root licence changed 1 time(s). The latest terms restrict what users, hosts or a buyer may do in ways the earlier ones did not. Code taken under the old terms stays under them, so both matter in diligence.

A note that does not affect this rating: a licence change is a fact for the first screen, and only a narrowing of rights within two years of the surveyed commit costs "strong".

9 advisories against this project in the last 24 months, 2 high or critical

adequate

The newest was published on 2026-09-20. 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 5 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 3.28.0. Answer lives in: the release you run, set against each fixed version. The record is incomplete: NVD: 6 records name mealie with nothing tying them to this repository (CVE-2022-32425, CVE-2022-34613, CVE-2022-34615, …).

A note that does not affect this rating: it describes the project's advisory record, and no advisory in it is known to affect the surveyed commit.

Nothing references a structured logging library. Logs that are written to be read by a person are not searchable by a machine, which means incident response here is proportional to how well someone remembers the codebase rather than to what the tooling can find.

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

Check it on the running system

7 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.

BOREHOLE READING NOT A CERTIFICATION 2DC1-K6D4-W9YJ 2026-10-04 · 62B8E35 BOREHOLE.DEV/VERIFY

Anyone can check this report against the authoritative record — click the stamp, or enter 2DC1-K6D4-W9YJ 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.

Put the mark in your README

The image is wrapped in a link to the verification page, so a reader can check it rather than take it on trust. If you embed it: link it to the report, remove it if the report is delisted, and do not present it as a certification or an endorsement.

[![Borehole reading, not a certification](https://borehole.dev/badge/mealie-recipes/mealie/62b8e35.svg "Borehole free reading: not for reliance. See the full report.")](https://borehole.dev/verify/2DC1K6D4W9YJ?via=badge)

Borehole reading 2DC1-K6D4-W9YJ, not a certification

This commit has been surveyed 10 times

A survey is a reading by a particular version of the assessor. Older readings are kept rather than replaced, because a verification mark attests to the survey it was issued for — overwriting one would make every code already in circulation read as tampered.

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 — 3 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. It is provided for information: nobody may rely on it (Borehole's terms, section 3).
