NPM Audit: Broken by Design
For those hoping to run npm audit in your CI/CD pipeline, I recommend this tool from IBM: https://github.com/IBM/audit-ci
In highly regulated industries, shipping code flagged as having a vuln without a manual approval could be a liability.
This wrapper around npm takes an allowlist argument, and our procedure is for an engineer to review the failing build, determine if the vulnerability (ugh, usually regex ddos or prototype pollution) is present in code that runs only at build time with trusted inputs, only on the client which is by definition untrusted, or in our webserver which takes in untrusted input.
As long as it's either of the first two, we document it in a commit and comment and redeploy. It's annoying, but it's far better than npm audit forcing a fix.

What NPM Should Do Today to Stop a New Colors Attack Tomorrow
Whole npm ecosystem is so fragile.
Remember event-stream[1]? Did we learned something from that? Yes, we might. So was it improved? Never. People are still installing 'new' colors package and wondering why its texts are broken.
What if he uploaded malicious code rather than just just gibberish?

Researcher hacks over 35 tech firms by creating public NPM packages
foo-bar version 1.0 depends on bada-boom 1.0 which depends on bada-bing 1.0. Now you update to foo-bar 1.1 because of some critical update, which in itself now depends on bada-boom 2.0 and bada-bing 2.0. But unbeknownst to you and the author of foo-bar, the bada-boom and bada-bing project was taken over by another maintainer who made an update, but also added some trojan horse code to specifically attack certain users, which was obfuscated and remained undetected. Which has happened before - not just browser extensions are affected by malicious attackers taking over useful projects.
