The verdict

OSPulse scores selenium at 84/100 (minimal risk), computed deterministically from live PyPI release history, and the OSV vulnerability database. Yes — selenium looks healthy, actively maintained, and free of known advisories today.

Its most recent release shipped on 11 July 2026 — 18 days ago — so development is clearly active. Across 228 releases the cadence has been steady, which is a good sign of an ongoing maintenance rhythm. PyPI doesn't expose a reliable maintainer count, so bus-factor isn't scored here — treat maintenance depth as unknown rather than assumed.

OSV lists 2 known advisories for selenium, of assorted severity. Review whether your version is in the affected range and whether a fixed release is available before depending on it. Each advisory is listed with its OSV/GHSA identifier below.

The signals are green today, but a clean snapshot is not a standing guarantee — packages drift. This is a one-time snapshot of a single package — real projects depend on dozens or hundreds of packages, and any one of them can drift or be compromised between releases. Run your own requirements.txt through the free health check, or have OSPulse monitor your whole dependency tree continuously.
