node.hasOwnProperty is not a function

[genediazjr]

I have used the following code using node v6

const Confidence = require('confidence');

const store = new Confidence.Store({ key: Object.create(null) });

console.log(store.get('/'));

And it returns the error TypeError: node.hasOwnProperty is not a function.

I have more complex scenarios that also result with the same error. The root cause is if the object does not have Object.prototype as its prototype.

As what I have found, this seems to be caused by some updates on node https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7223. But the change was for query strings only so I am unsure why this was affected.

Probably related as well. https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/9130
