Socket Releases Free Certified Patches for Critical vm2 Sandbox Escape
A critical vm2 sandbox escape can allow untrusted JavaScript to break isolation and execute commands on the host Node.js process.
Async try-catch like interface for Node.js.
# Using npm
npm install --save try-async
# Using yarn
yarn add try-async
const tryAsync = require("try-async");
tryAsync(() => {
setTimeout(() => {
throw new Error("Nasty error thrown from async stuff.");
}, 10);
}, (err) => {
console.log("Something went wrong: " + err);
// => Something went wrong: Error: Nasty error thrown from async stuff.
});
There are few ways to get help:
tryAsync(fn, _catch)Runs the input function into an async try-catch (using Node.js domains).
fn: The function to run._catch: The catch function.Domain object.Have an idea? Found a bug? See how to contribute.
I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).
However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:
Starring and sharing the projects you like :rocket:
—I love books! I will remember you after years if you buy me one. :grin: :book:
—You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a
coffee tea. :tea:
—Set up a recurring monthly donation and you will get interesting news about what I'm doing (things that I don't share with everyone).
Bitcoin—You can send me bitcoins at this address (or scanning the code below): 1P9BRsmazNQcuyTxEqveUsnf5CERdq35V6

Thanks! :heart:
