Seal Security interview questions

As part of their web application written in Node.JS, Penguin uses tough-cookie 2.5.0 to process their clients' cookies. Unfortunately, it is affected by CVE-2023-26136, rated as a critical vulnerability by NIST's NVD. According to the vulnerability advisory, the only way to solve the issue is by upgrading to 4.1.3. However, the Penguins feel shorthanded (pun intended) and don't have the necessary capacity to adjust their code to work with the new version of tough-cookie. In order to help them, our goal is to create a customized version of tough-cookie 2.5.0 which is not vulnerable to CVE-2023-26136.
