CVE-2020-7729

The package grunt before 1.3.0 are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution due to the default usage of the function load() instead of its secure replacement safeLoad() of the package js-yaml inside grunt.file.readYAML.

For Debian 9 Stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.1-5+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your grunt packages.
