Node.js Drops Bug Bounty Rewards After Funding Dries Up
Node.js has paused its bug bounty program after funding ended, removing payouts for vulnerability reports but keeping its security process unchanged.
@axync/random
Advanced tools

The @axync/random package provides utility functions for generating random strings and integers. It is designed to be flexible and customizable, allowing you to specify character sets, prefixes, and suffixes for the generated strings.
Install the package using npm:
npm install @axync/random
The RandomStringGenerator class allows you to generate random strings with customizable character sets, prefixes, and suffixes.
import { RandomStringGenerator } from '@axync/random';
const generator = new RandomStringGenerator({
charset: 'abcdef012345',
prefix: 'PRE-',
suffix: '-SUF',
});
const randomString = generator.generate(10);
console.log(randomString); // Output might be something like: "PRE-d34c5ba012-SUF"
The RandomStringGeneratorConfig interface allows you to customize the behavior of the RandomStringGenerator:
charset: The character set to use for generating random strings. Defaults to abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789.prefix: A string to prepend to the generated random string.suffix: A string to append to the generated random string.The getRandomString function is a convenient way to generate a random string using the default configuration.
import { getRandomString } from '@axync/random';
const randomString = getRandomString(10);
console.log(randomString); // Output might be something like: "aBcD1234Ef"
The getRandomIntegerNumber function returns a random integer between the specified minimum and maximum values.
import { getRandomIntegerNumber } from '@axync/random';
const randomNumber = getRandomIntegerNumber(1, 100);
console.log(randomNumber); // Output might be any integer between 1 and 100

Security News
The Axios compromise shows how time-dependent dependency resolution makes exposure harder to detect and contain.

Research
A supply chain attack on Axios introduced a malicious dependency, plain-crypto-js@4.2.1, published minutes earlier and absent from the project’s GitHub releases.
