Purpose
Goals
Fix XSS Vulnerability in plugin
uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
Approach
Since the repository for
uglifyjs-webpack-plugin
is archived by the developer, the dependency list would not be fixed. Therefore according to a recommendation on StackOverflow will be removing theuglifyjs-webpack-plugin
and will introduce a new minification plugin.There is also a discussion which has happened in the webpack repository itself.
