Critical Vulnerability in NestJS Devtools: Localhost RCE via Sandbox Escape
A flawed sandbox in @nestjs/devtools-integration lets attackers run code on your machine via CSRF, leading to full Remote Code Execution (RCE).

Advanced tools
A request authorization header validator for Joi.
joi-authorization-header
validates an object contains an
"authorization" property whose value is a string of the specified length, optionally
prefixed with "Bearer " or "bearer ". It's used just like you'd use
any other Joi
type.
var Joi = require('joi');
Joi.authHeader = require('joi-authorization-header')(Joi);
Joi.validate(request.headers, Joi.authHeader(64));
You must specify the length requirements of your authorization header value or an Error will be thrown. It's easiest to explain by showing some examples:
var Joi = require('joi');
Joi.authHeader = require('joi-authorization-header')(Joi);
Joi.authHeader(64); // header must be exactly 64 characters in length
Joi.authHeader(2, 20); // header must be between 2 and 20 characters in length (inclusive)
The length validators do not include the optional "Bearer " value prefix.
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "Bearer 1234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // pass
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "Bearer 234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // fail
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "1234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // pass
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // fail
npm install joi-authorization-header --save
