CDK third-party dependencies management

Open skinny85 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Description

The CDK depends on many third-party open-source libraries. Because of that, it needs to manage what happens when a security issue is found in one of them, and how do we defend against supply chain attacks.

Roles

What is the proposition here? Sounds interesting.

I reckon this issue should raise the question about AWS funding these 3rd party tools in a business partnership model. A tool like @feross @SocketDev could really shine here, but again, a funding and license model is key.

Marking this RFCs as stale like the associated PR. We appreciate the effort that has gone into this proposal. Marking an RFCs as stale is not a one-way door. If you have made substantial changes to the proposal, please open a new issue/RFC. You might also consider raising a PR to aws/aws-cdk directly or self-publishing to Construct Hub.
