Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - This affects the package vm2 before 3.6.11. It is possible to trigger a RangeError exception from the host
 rather than the "sandboxed" context by reaching the stack call limit with an infinite recursion. The
 returned object is then used to reference the mainModule property of the host code running the script
 allowing it to spawn a child_process and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-10761)
