Unintended Require in larvitbase-api
Versions of larvitbase-api prior to 0.5.4 are vulnerable to an Unintended Require. The package exposes an API endpoint and passes a GET parameter unsanitized to an require() call. This allows attackers to execute any .js file in the same folder as the server is running.

Upgrade to version 0.5.4 or later.
