Using outdated dependency flags dependency confusion attack [PR available] #71

@jackwhelpton

Description

@jackwhelpton

Expected Behavior

Prior to v1.9.0, acorn-import-attributes (then called acorn-import-assertions) used an implicit/not fully qualified reference to a dependency (test262).

This causes security scanning tools to flag a possible dependency confusion attack.

Actual Behavior

No security warning

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

  1. Run security scan (e.g. Orca) on code using this repo
