Security: Transitive dependencies not scanned #11

@ProduktEntdecker

Description

@ProduktEntdecker

Limitation

Only explicitly installed packages are checked:

npm install clean-looking-package
# But clean-looking-package depends on vulnerable-dep
# We only check clean-looking-package

Difficulty: Design

Would require fetching package metadata and resolving dependency tree.
Performance concern: hook has 10-15s timeout.

Priority: Low

Fundamental limitation, high effort.
