Description
I installed the csv2geojson v5.1.1 to my project and after that, I checked the csv2geojson.js
I found a new Function declaration here! Isn't this a security problem? Is it safe to use?

Research direction
Start by reviewing csv2geojson.js in the v5.1.1 package and the linked MDN Function reference to understand why the new Function declaration is present. Trace whether user-provided CSV data can reach it and compare the behavior with the reported security concern. Done means documenting whether the usage is safe or identifying a concrete remediation.
