_{^{Put your malicious code in a package and people will gobble it up like cookies.}}

Supply chain attack

delivery

postinstall

typo squatting

dependency confusion

package takeover

prototype poisoning

🙈

BTW

Don't publish malware to NPM please

## Prototype poisoning # 🧪🍏 ![]() ```js const a = {}; Object.prototype.toString = ()=>'👻'; console.log(`scary object: ${a}`); ``` ``` scary object: 👻 ```

### JS can be tweaked and it's no accident - designed in 10 days - humbly assuming there's room for improvement

## polyfills #### and ## prototype poisoning #### are the same thing #### with different intentions

## attack examples # ☠️ repo:[js-training-examples -> defensive coding](https://github.com/naugtur/js-training-examples)

 Let's put my blue hat back on

        ## Hardened Javascript

---
        ## 🤯
        ### JS design is good for security?

- Take ECMA + W3C
        - Add Conway's Law
        - Separation between language and APIs
        - Power only reachable through scope
        - Hardened Javascript controls scope

---
          ### SES-shim
          > Implementation of Hardened Javascript while we wait for it to be standardized.
  
          - `Compartment` - scope isolation
          - `lockdown` - makes your globals secure
  
        ---
        ### `lockdown` 
        #### prevents prototype poisoning

```js

Object.freeze(Object.prototype) 
        // and stuff like that

```

## LavaMoat

Uses SES-shim to protect app code from malicious dependencies.
