Critical vulnerability zlib/zlib1g
Hi all,
I've got a Nuxt 3 app v3.15.1 and snyk.io has found a critical vulnerability about a lib called zlib. I found in my yarn lock that the closest lib I have is minizlib. Which is a denpendecy of minipass-fetch which is also a dependency of make-fetch-happen.
Do you guys have some information about this critical vulnerability?

Hi @gmisslin. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the knowledge sources provided, I don't have specific information about a critical vulnerability in zlib or zlib1g for Nuxt 3.15.1. The documents don't mention this particular issue.
However, I can provide some general insights based on related information:
1. Nuxt, like many JavaScript frameworks, relies on various dependencies which can sometimes have vulnerabilities.
2. The Nuxt team is generally proactive about addressing security issues. For example, they've recently made efforts to update and replace outdated dependencies, as seen in this pull request: Github Pull Request #28946.
3. When dealing with potential vulnerabilities, it's important to consider the context. Some reported vulnerabilities may not be directly applicable to how Nuxt uses a particular dependency.
4. If you're concerned about a specific vulnerability, it's best to check the official Nuxt GitHub repository for any ongoing discussions or recent updates related to security issues.
5. In some cases, you might need to wait for the Nuxt team to address the issue in a future release. In the meantime, you could consider using package patching techniques as a temporary solution, as discussed in this video: YouTube: Patching Packages - The ULTIMATE Guide.
Given the lack of specific information about this zlib vulnerability in the provided knowledge sources, I recommend:
1. Checking the official Nuxt GitHub repository for any recent issues or discussions about this vulnerability.
2. Considering updating to the latest Nuxt version if one is available, as it might include security fixes.
3. If the issue persists, you may want to report it to the Nuxt team through their official channels.
Remember, while security alerts are important, it's also crucial to verify their applicability to your specific use case before taking action.
