Description

`@mapbox/mapbox-gl-geocoder@5.0.1 requires got@^10.7.0 via a transitive dependency on @mapbox/mapbox-sdk@0.13.3`.

The got package before 11.8.5 and 12.1.0 for Node.js allows a redirect to a UNIX socket. https://security.snyk.io/package/npm/got

Updating `@mapbox/mapbox-sdk` to version 0.13.5 should resolve the issue since it uses `got@^11.8.5`.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the repository's dependency declarations and lockfile to see how @mapbox/mapbox-sdk and got are resolved. Verify that updating @mapbox/mapbox-sdk to 0.13.5 selects a non-vulnerable got version, then run the existing project checks. Done means the vulnerable transitive version is no longer present without breaking the package.
