Npm build issues

[litelime]

Hello,
I am getting this issue with the current version of "main"

glob-parent  <5.1.2
Severity: moderate
Regular expression denial of service - https://npmjs.com/advisories/1751
No fix available
node_modules/webpack-dev-server/node_modules/glob-parent
  chokidar  1.0.0-rc1 - 2.1.8
  Depends on vulnerable versions of glob-parent
  node_modules/webpack-dev-server/node_modules/chokidar
    webpack-dev-server  2.0.0-beta - 3.11.2
    Depends on vulnerable versions of chokidar
    node_modules/webpack-dev-server
      @angular-devkit/build-angular  *
      Depends on vulnerable versions of webpack-dev-server
      node_modules/@angular-devkit/build-angular

Looks like glob-parent is giving me the issue and audit/audit --force are not able to fix it.
Unfortunately I can't build with this error, any ideas on how to solve this?
I would assume I need to change the version but I see it show up multiple times in the package file.

I completely deleted the repo and re-cloned, then did the npm install again. Still got the same audit warning but was able to successfully build now, so probably some other issue was causing the build failure before.

Sorry I have to start checking the Discussions section more often 😓 I didn't see this thread until now (few months late).

I think with errors like this it sometimes helps to remove node_modules completely and sometimes it helps to also delete the package-lock.json file before npm install

I'm glad you found a work-around 😅

ps - now because of some dependencies getting old, npm install errors out; but the error is easy to overcome with:

npm install --legacy-peer-deps
