I note that the Debian security team doesn't support libv8, nodejs and
the stack above it.

In my experience the JavaScript team doesn't appear to be following
the nodesecurity.io security advisories.

What is your plan for avoiding the security issues discovered in
libv8/nodejs and gitlab-related node modules?
