Pull Request for Issue # .

Summary of Changes

This pull request (PR) fixes one high severity and one moderate severity security vulnerability in indirect NPM development dependencies reported by npm audit by using npm audit fix.

It is the same as PR #46503 for 6.0-dev, which for some reason was not merged up with PR #46536 .

There are meanwhile 4 new low severity vulnerabilities found, which are all related to the odemailer and can not be fixed without the --force option. These have to be handled separately with other PRs for the diverse branches.

Testing Instructions

It needs a development environment with a git clone, composer and npm.

  1. If not done before, run composer install and npm ci.
  2. Run npm audit.
  3. Check the result.
