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 2fcbc13d2016fcfb7648a18296951f6942215255 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: 11 After: 3
Number of vulnerabilities:
Before: 96 After: 29
Before execution, total vulnerabilities were:
Low: 6, Medium: 32, High: 42, Critical: 16
After execution, total vulnerabilities are:
Low: 3, Medium: 6, High: 10, Critical: 10
View the full Safer report [here](https://gist.github.com/safer-bot/3a8db89f4cfeb63760c34a1b088c8483).
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

Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the linked Safer report and the project state at commit 2fcbc13d2016fcfb7648a18296951f6942215255; a concrete dependency-update scope must be established before work can begin, and done should mean the vulnerable dependencies are safely reduced without breaking compatibility.
