DepScout v0.1.1 - Initial Release

This is the first public release of DepScout, a high-performance, concurrent scanner for detecting Dependency Confusion vulnerabilities.

Core Features

Dependency Confusion Scanning: Identifies potential Dependency Confusion vulnerabilities by scanning JavaScript files for package names and checking their existence on the public npm registry.
Dual Parsing Engine:
- Regex Mode: Fast, high-performance scanning using fine-tuned regular expressions to find require() and import statements.
- Deep Scan Mode (--deep-scan): High-accuracy scanning using a full Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) parser to eliminate false positives from non-code contexts (e.g., comments). Includes an automatic fallback to regex if AST parsing fails.
Concurrent Architecture: Leverages a powerful, concurrent worker model to perform high-speed fetching and analysis of hundreds or thousands of files simultaneously.
Adaptive Rate Limiting: Features a smart, per-domain rate limiter that automatically adjusts request speeds based on server responses (e.g., 429 Too Many Requests), maximizing speed without overwhelming targets.
Flexible Input: Accepts targets from single URLs (-u), files (-f), local directories (-d), or piped via stdin.
Advanced Configuration: Provides a rich set of CLI flags for fine-grained control.
Multiple Output Formats: Delivers results in human-readable text or machine-readable JSON (--json).
