I'm thinking eval's and prototype overloading would make this a permanent cat and mouse game.
Frankly, I don't see how the node ecosystem can ever be secure. It's random-libraries all the way down. With half of them being useless frippery.
Imho, WASM compiled from languages that have strong standard libraries are the way forward for security. And, maybe node will get fixed in 5-10 years.
A good example of a language going "this shouldn't be a library."- Net used to only have a third party json parser (newtonsoft) but microsoft created a first party json parser and deprecated newtonsoft from their examples and templates
