Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

eslint-plugin-node-security

v4.0.2

Published

Security-focused ESLint plugin for Node.js built-in modules (fs, child_process, vm, path, Buffer). Detects command injection, path traversal, code execution vulnerabilities with AI-parseable error messages.

Readme

Description

This plugin provides Security rules for Node.js core modules (fs, child_process, crypto, etc). By using this plugin, you can proactively identify and mitigate security risks across your entire codebase.

Philosophy

Interlace fosters strength through integration. Instead of stacking isolated rules, we interlace security directly into your workflow to create a resilient fabric of code. We believe tools should guide rather than gatekeep, providing educational feedback that strengthens the developer with every interaction.

Getting Started

npm install eslint-plugin-node-security --save-dev

💡 What You Get

  • 31 security rules covering Node.js core module vulnerabilities
  • Command Injection Detection for child_process.exec, spawn, and execFile
  • Path Traversal Prevention for fs module operations
  • TOCTOU Race Condition Detection for file system operations
  • Cryptographic Security for weak algorithms and key management
  • LLM-optimized messages with CWE references and fix guidance

⚙️ Configuration Presets

| Preset | Description | | :------------ | :---------------------------------------------------- | | recommended | Balanced security for most Node.js projects | | strict | Maximum security enforcement (all rules as errors) | | fs-security | Focus on file system vulnerabilities (CWE-22, CWE-73) | | crypto | Cryptographic security rules only |
