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).
lodash.isarguments
Advanced tools
The lodash.isarguments package is a utility function that checks if a given value is an arguments object. This is useful for type checking and ensuring that the value being worked with is indeed an arguments object, which is a special type of object in JavaScript that holds the arguments passed to a function.
Check if a value is an arguments object
This feature allows you to check if a given value is an arguments object. In the code sample, the `isArguments` function is used to check if the `arguments` object inside `exampleFunction` is indeed an arguments object, which returns true. It also checks if a regular array is an arguments object, which returns false.
const isArguments = require('lodash.isarguments');
function exampleFunction() {
console.log(isArguments(arguments)); // true
}
exampleFunction();
console.log(isArguments([1, 2, 3])); // false
The is-arguments package provides a similar functionality to lodash.isarguments by checking if a value is an arguments object. It is a lightweight alternative and can be used in environments where you want to avoid the overhead of the full lodash library.
The type-detect package is a more general-purpose type checking library that can detect various types of values, including arguments objects. It offers broader functionality compared to lodash.isarguments, making it useful if you need to perform multiple types of type checks.
The lodash method _.isArguments
exported as a Node.js module.
Using npm:
$ {sudo -H} npm i -g npm
$ npm i --save lodash.isarguments
In Node.js:
var isArguments = require('lodash.isarguments');
See the documentation or package source for more details.
