Description
The OpenJS Foundation (OpenJSF) (and previously Node.js Foundation) has indicated plans of creating a new security program for the Node.js ecosystem, scoped more narrowly to the OpenJSF projects.
The previous Node.js Third-Party Ecosystem Security Program that was managed by the Node.js Security Working Group was scoped to:
- Managed a HackerOne Program with bounties for select NPM packages
- Managed a vulnerability database for NPM packages (initially donated by NSP)
Although it's not clear at this moment what this new program would entail, it seems like it might be a lift-and-shift, but with a focus on OpenJSF projects.
This issue is to track this work of the OpenJSF and to hold discussions on its applicability to LoopBack.

Research direction
Start by reading the linked OpenJS Foundation cross-project-council issue and the Node.js Security Working Group issues cited in the description. Compare the proposed program with the previous HackerOne and NPM vulnerability-database scope, then document whether and how it applies to LoopBack once the OpenJSF plans are clear.
