Node.js security

Does it mean that anyone can view my files on a server through node.js debugger? Any way to prevent a 3rd party from viewing node.js files?

You have to have have direct access to the server to use the debugger. Normally, folks will only have access to pages generated by the server, not direct access to the server itself.
