Description

This plugin provides Security rules for Vercel AI SDK usage (prompt injection, data handling).

Philosophy

Interlace fosters strength through integration. Instead of stacking isolated rules, we interlace security directly into your workflow to create a resilient fabric of code. We believe tools should guide rather than gatekeep, providing educational feedback that strengthens the developer with every interaction.

Why these rules are quiet

Noise creates apathy, and apathy is not a security posture. A linter that reports a thousand things a week gets switched off in a month, and the real finding goes with it. So every rule here is built to be worth reading: we would rather miss a finding than spend your attention on one that was never real.

That is a trade, and it is made deliberately. It costs recall, and we measure what it costs rather than assuming it is free.

How the rules decide

Evidence, not names. A rule fires on what the code does, resolved through the AST and ESLint's own scope analysis — not on an identifier that happens to contain query, a method called setItem, or a file whose path contains key. Every one of those was a real false positive in this ecosystem, found by reading our own output on open-source projects and fixed with a test that fails on the unfixed rule.

Where a rule has known false-positive shapes, its page carries a Not a finding section: what it deliberately stays quiet on, and what to check first when it fires and you disagree.

What you get

The rules below. Security rules carry a CWE mapping and, where one is assigned, a CVSS score; every rule carries a fix on its message — in prose for a human and as structured JSON for an agent. Install it, enable recommended, and read the findings. If one of them is wrong, open an issue — a false positive is a bug here, not a tuning exercise for you.

How that is measured, on which projects, and where it falls short: benchmark methodology and results.

📚 Supported Libraries

Library	npm	Downloads	Detection
ai (Vercel AI SDK)			Prompt Injection, Data Leakage

🤖 AI-Agent Optimized Messages

All rule messages follow a structured format optimized for AI coding assistants:

🔒 CWE-74 OWASP:A03-Injection CVSS:9 | Unsafe Prompt | CRITICAL [SOC2,GDPR]
   Fix: Validate input before use | https://owasp.org/...

By providing this structured context (CWE, OWASP, Fix), we enable AI tools to reason about the security flaw rather than hallucinating. This allows Copilot/Cursor to suggest the exact correct fix immediately.

🙋 FAQ

What's the difference between this and generic AI security linters?

Generic linters guess at patterns. This plugin knows the exact Vercel AI SDK API.

Does this work with ESLint 9 Flat Config?

Yes! Designed specifically for ESLint Flat Config — works on ESLint 8 (with flat config), 9, and 10. See the ESLint Version Support Policy for the full matrix.

How do I suppress a rule for a specific line?

// eslint-disable-next-line vercel-ai-security/require-validated-prompt
await generateText({ prompt: internalPrompt });

Why is ASI06 (Memory Corruption) not covered?

TypeScript/JavaScript are memory-safe languages. Memory corruption vulnerabilities (buffer overflows, use-after-free, etc.) are not possible in these environments.
