State of Node.js Security
summary
Gives concrete incidents and fixes: a buffer initialization leak can expose in‑memory secrets; the old Node debugger listens on all interfaces enabling remote code execution if used carelessly; npm hits one million packages and an eslint compromise used a malicious postinstall stealing npm tokens, prompting npm token changes and wider 2FA adoption. Recommends prepared statements, strict input validation, dependency monitoring, using the public security advisories JSON and tracking Node versions and CVEs.
