Node.js is a popular JavaScript server-side framework with an efficient runtime for cloud-based event-driven architectures. Its strength is the presence of thousands of third-party libraries which allow developers to quickly build and deploy applications. These very libraries are a source of security threats as a vulnerability in one library can (and in some cases did) compromise one's entire server.
