tl;dr

1. Don't run as root.
2. For sessions, set httpOnly (and secure to true if running over SSL) when setting cookies.
3. Use the Helmet for secure headers: https://github.com/evilpacket/helmet
4. Enable csrf for preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery: http://expressjs.com/api.html#csrf
5. Don't use the deprecated bodyParser() and only use multipart explicitly. To avoid multiparts vulnerability to 'temp file' bloat, use the defer property and pipe() the multipart upload stream to the intended destination.

I just had to set up Jenkins to use GitHub. My notes (to myself, mostly):

Detailed Instructions

For setting up Jenkins to build GitHub projects. This assumes some ability to manage Jenkins, use the command line, set up a utility LDAP account, etc. Please share or improve this Gist as needed.

Install Jenkins Plugins

• get both the git and github plugin
• http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin
