Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Prototype Pollution: The mget() retrieval methods in NodeCache and NodeCacheStore historically returned map objects vulnerable to prototype pollution when handling unchecked keys, requiring mitigation via Object.create(null).

Prototype Pollution: WHOIS and RDAP response parsing logic parsed and normalized fields into standard objects, creating a risk of prototype pollution and ReDoS that required shifting to null-prototype objects during parsing.

Prototype Pollution: The library relied on an outdated version of the 'flatted' package, introducing a transitively inherited prototype pollution vulnerability (GHSA-rf6f-7fwh-wjgh).
