Description

Hi there 👋,
I'm [Safer Bot](https://gitlab.com/lsi-ufcg/vulnerabilidades/safer)!
Safer is an open-source tool that automatically updates vulnerable dependencies to more secure and compatible versions. Our goal is to help maintainers keep their projects secure without breaking changes.
We ran Safer on your project at commit 38ac70d7988541f8576233c01cc4b09fac27e158 and identified dependency updates that reduce vulnerabilities while preserving stability. Safer uses a compatibility-aware heuristic to select the most appropriate versions for each dependency.

Safer Report Summary:

Number of dependencies with vulnerabilities:
Before: 3 After: 1
Number of vulnerabilities:
Before: 13 After: 5
Before execution, total vulnerabilities were:
Low: 0, Medium: 9, High: 4, Critical: 0
After execution, total vulnerabilities are:
Low: 0, Medium: 3, High: 2, Critical: 0

View the full Safer report [here](https://gist.github.com/safer-bot/4f0365a5003239f65288d5f184de3512).

I'm excited to contribute to the open source community with my tool and would be happy to assist with any questions or feedback.
Feel free to reply to this issue and I'll respond as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Safer Bot

The issue does not name dependency files, tests, or a specific requested update, so confirm the affected dependencies and define validation steps before attempting a change. Done should mean the reported vulnerabilities are addressed without breaking compatibility.
