• npm eslint-config-airbnb-standard: >= 2.0.0, < 2.1.0 → fixed in 2.1.0

Description

Version 2.0.0 of `eslint-config-airbnb-standard` was published with a bundled version of `eslint-scope` that was found to contain malicious code. This code would read the users `.npmrc` file and send it's contents to a remote server. Recommendation The best course of action if you found this package installed in your environment is to revoke all your npm tokens and use a different version of the module. You can find instructions on how to do that here. https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/working_with_tokens#how-to-revoke-tokens
