- Fixed in
- 0.11.1
Update to the fixed version for your release line, for example:

Is GHSA-jgqf-hwc5-hh37 in any of your client repos?
Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected send, and gives you the command that fixes it.
