Seems like express is locked to 6.2.0, can this be bumped to 6.2.2?

    I am a bit disappointed you didn't follow the instructions for disclosing security issues...

    For anyone wondering, this is a vulun that affects an underlying module, but a feature that Express does not use of the module. The module is going to be upgraded in a version of Express released today, but previous versions are not affects by the issue, since it's not a feature Express uses.

    Hi @karlatkinson I have restored the original issue report now that Express 4.15.0 has been released with an updated qs module.

    Thanks @dougwilson. 👍
    I would have raised it via a private channel if it wasn't already in the public domain. Will follow your process going forward however.
    I'd highly recommend integrating snyk into your workflow to get automatic notifications in the future.

    Snyk is already part of the workflow. They did not publish the notice until yesterday, so I had no lead time to do anything.
