Description
Looks like we need to upgrade the version (apologies for not PR'ing that change, wanted to at least file the issue). However perhaps I'm not understanding this correctly, as I'm not really a JS developer.
```sh
$ cd examples-orms/node/sequelize
$ npm install
added 112 packages from 146 contributors and audited 226 packages in 2.523s

Research direction
Start in examples-orms/node/sequelize and inspect the npm dependency metadata for the Sequelize version. Run npm audit to confirm the reported vulnerability, update the dependency as appropriate, and verify that the audit no longer reports it while the example still installs successfully.
