## chainctl libraries packages malware list

List the Chainguard malware/greyware blocklist.

### Synopsis

List Chainguard's malware/greyware blocklist across language ecosystems.

Filter to a single package with --package (and optionally --version) to check
whether a specific artifact is flagged; rows returned means blocked, empty means
clear.

```
chainctl libraries packages malware list [--ecosystem ECOSYSTEM] [--package NAME] [--version VERSION] [--since TIME] [--before TIME] [--sort KEYS] [--exit-code] [--output=json|table] [flags]
```

### Options

```
      --before string      Only show entries blocked strictly before this RFC3339 time. Combine with --since to query a bounded range.
      --ecosystem string   Only show blocklist entries for this ecosystem (DOTNET, GO, JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, PYTHON). If empty, all ecosystems are returned.
      --exit-code          Exit with a non-zero status if any entries match, so the command can be used as a CI gate.
      --limit int32        The maximum number of entries to return; results are paginated automatically up to this limit. (default 50)
      --package string     Only show entries whose package name matches (exact).
      --since string       Only show entries blocked at or after this RFC3339 time (e.g. 2026-05-01T00:00:00Z).
      --sort string        Comma-separated keys to sort by, ascending, in precedence order (e.g. package,version). Keys: blocked, package, version (blocked is oldest-first; version is semver-aware). Defaults to newest-blocked first.
      --version string     Only show entries matching this version. Requires --package.
