It's days like this where I'm happy I'm unemployed. I have a group chat with a few friends and they're pushing out patches and it's a bit of a rush.
All my publicly accessible servers update every 6 hours and reboot after whenever they need to. It's rare I need to step in and fix something. I checked a few hours ago and I'm not at risk.
not the flex you think it is.
didn't npm have a worm problem a few days ago?
Yep. I wasn't affected thankfully. Didn't realise I was flexing, sorry. Just happy most of my stack is automated and it's quite low maintenance at this point.
Where do I draw the line then? Serious question. If updating every couple hours is bad, then what's safe?
You can use pnpm instead of npm. pnpm has a "Delay dependency updates" feature where you can install package versions that are x old only.
See https://pnpm.io/supply-chain-security#delay-dependency-updates
Edit: I just found out, that this can also be specified in npm and yarn: https://gist.github.com/mcollina/b294a6c39ee700d24073c0e5a4e93104
