Agenda

Repo template as baseline

Prototype Pollution in JSON5 via Parse Method

  • Let's take into account if that vulnerability affects us (directly at all)

  • Currently NPM is the major challenge
  • Github and inbox were fully recovered already

  • Ulises will create a POC repo and prepare a demo to the team, then we will decide if we adopt it

Repos with NPM version mismatch

  • Open for collaboration (please comment in the issue if you are interested)

Missing NPM Package publication permissions

Initiatives for 2023

  • See #20
  • We need to involve more people (let's make some noise in Slack)
