  - on-headers is a node.js middleware for listening to when a response writes headers. A bug in on-headers
    versions `<1.1.0` may result in response headers being inadvertently modified when an array is passed to
    `response.writeHead()`. Users should upgrade to version 1.1.0 to receive a patch. Uses are strongly
    encouraged to upgrade to `1.1.0`, but this issue can be worked around by passing an object to
    `response.writeHead()` rather than an array. (CVE-2025-7339)
