Do not allocate uninitialized buffers in Node.js (no-unsafe-alloc)
When calling Buffer.allocUnsafe and Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow, the allocated memory is not wiped-out and can contain old, potentially sensitive data.
These methods should be used only in justifiable cases (e.g. due to performance reasons) after thorough security review.
