Description
I have a project that depends on qiniu@7.3.2, which seems to be the latest version.
When running yarn audit, this error shows up since a few days ago:
┌───────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

It’d be great to see a new version of qiniu that depends on netmask@^2.0.1. Thank you!
