What and why?
Goal of this PR is to update the
netmask
nested dependency to fix a critical vulnerability.It does so by updating the
proxy-agent
dependency from major 3.x to major 4.x. It should not introduce breaking changes from our perspective, it upgrades the underlying dependencyagent-base
from v4 to v6 (cf. TooTallNate/node-proxy-agent#55) which itself changes the way options are passed to the proxy agent.Review checklist
