DeprecationWarning: Buffer() is deprecated due to security and usability issues when I move my script to another server

by 
new Buffer(number)            // Old
Buffer.alloc(number)          // New

new Buffer(string)            // Old
Buffer.from(string)           // New

new Buffer(string, encoding)  // Old
Buffer.from(string, encoding) // New

new Buffer(...arguments)      // Old
Buffer.from(...arguments)     // New

Note that Buffer.alloc() is also faster on the current Node.js versions than new Buffer(size).fill(0), which is what you would otherwise need to ensure zero-filling.
