I've done some investigations into the issue you've created regarding developing a vulnerable Node.js app for demo purposes. Here's a brief summary based on the exploration within the codebase and some web search results:
Insights on the Issue:
The dvna codebase already includes references to Node.js, Express.js, and various other packages such as ‘passport’ for authentication and ‘body-parser’. The application is set up with Express and includes views for different common vulnerabilities, indicating that this project is structured toward demonstrating security flaws within a web application context.
Related Code
- Initiation of Express.js and session management in `server.js`:
```javascript
var express = require('express')
var session = require('express-session')
var app = express()
app.use(session({
secret: 'keyboard cat',
resave: true,
saveUninitialized: true,
cookie: { secure: false }
}))
```
- Passport.js initialization for authentication in `server.js`:
```javascript
var passport = require('passport')
app.use(passport.initialize())
app.use(passport.session())
```
