We talk constantly about the risks of unmaintained dependencies and supply chain vulnerabilities, but rarely about the complexity of fixing them when the project is as massive as Lodash.

This amazing article captures the reality of Open Source sustainability. Thanks @sarahgooding.bsky.social!
"Security work is emotionally expensive and invisible, and sharing it makes it sustainable." - @ulisesgascon.com

Many thanks to @jddalton.bsky.social, @jordan.har.band, and @ulisesgascon.com for their insights on maintaining Lodash and all the hard work put into reviving the project. 💚
Lodash is critical #JavaScript infrastructure.

We spoke with maintainers about its first security release in years — and why sunsetting it was never a real option.

Big year for security at OpenJS 👀

With support from Alpha Omega, we leveled up security across Node.js and the OpenJS ecosystem in 2025. Faster vulnerability response, automated releases, a new OpenJS CNA, stronger disclosure practices, and hands on support for over 10 projects.
