Pull Request for Issue # .

Summary of Changes

This pull request (PR) fixes two high and one low severity security vulnerabilities in NPM development dependencies reported by npm audit by using npm audit fix.

@Bodge-IT @softforge Same as PR #46662 for 5.4-dev, but here for 6.0-dev to avoid ugly merge conflicts for the upmerge after that. Just ignore all changes in the "package.json" and "package-lock.json" files when doing an upmerge after the 5.4-dev PR has been merged.

@HLeithner @tecpromotion In 6.1-dev the changes from this PR here have already been made with the NPM dependency update, so simply ignore the changes when doing your upmerge after this PR here has been merged into 6.0-dev.

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.
