Puppeteer Node Security Risks

Describe the problem/error/question

Hey Everyone! Hope you are doing great!

Currently I’m working in a workflow that needs the features provided by n8n-nodes-pupeteer. However I have a concern related with the risks described in this doc. So I wonder if you could share me some insight or experience about what other alternative or approach could I use to avoid any security gap. Currently I’m using an ECS self-hosted installation.

Thanks in advance for your support!

hello @Gonzalo_Romero_Herna

What is your use case? Generally, it’s better to avoid installing unknown community nodes if you are not sure.

Hey @barn4k basically I just want to create PDF’s from HTML but the thing is that those HTML contains confidential information and even when tools like Puppeteer looks useful, it seems to be pretty dangerous in terms of security compliance. I’m pretty sure that I’m not the first facing this kind of challenges so I wonder how those cases like mine were addressed based on the vast experience of the community. Thanks again for read my question and happy to follow any suggestion!!

You can save the file in oneDrive and then download it as pdf. You will need oneDrive credentials for that.
