Learn about secure coding practices with Node.js based on real-world CVE vulnerabilities in popular open-source npm packages. This book takes an adventure-based approach to application security learning, where you will be playing a detective who unravels the mysteries of common security vulnerabilities. Through these exercises, you will learn about secure coding practices and how to avoid security pitfalls that software developers and open-source maintainers encounter. Senior software engineers often recite how one of the most critical skills you should have as an engineer is the ability to read code. The more you read, the easier it becomes for you to understand code and the more context you gain. This book focuses on that - reading vulnerable code so we can learn from it. Designed for jаvascript software developers building Node.js applications and security professionals interested in path traversal security vulnerabilities, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the topic. It also demonstrates its impact and concerns on web application security. Through insecure coding practices found in vulnerable open-source npm packages, this book examines the security aspects affecting jаvascript and Node.js applications.
