  - Versions of the package http-proxy-middleware before 2.0.7, from 3.0.0 and before 3.0.3 are vulnerable to
    Denial of Service (DoS) due to an UnhandledPromiseRejection error thrown by micromatch. An attacker could
    kill the Node.js process and crash the server by making requests to certain paths. (CVE-2024-21536)
