   There are a few known security breaches in the sample source..
   
   Specifically the following alerts:
   
   CVE-2019-5484
   Bower before 1.8.8 has a path traversal vulnerability permitting file write 
in arbitrary locations via install command, which allows attackers to write 
arbitrary files when a malicious package is extracted.
   
   CVE-2019-5413
   An attacker can use the format parameter to inject arbitrary commands in the 
npm package morgan < 1.9.1.
   
   CVE-2017-16137
   The debug module is vulnerable to regular expression denial of service when 
untrusted user input is passed into the o formatter. It takes around 50k 
characters to block for 2 seconds making this a low severity issue.
   
   I'm not saying these are critical. But, it's better we fix them to prevent 
any possibility of using Netbeans IDE to allow someone to exploit this. As well 
as set the proper example.
