Hi, is this module maintained?

Hi,

thanks for creating such an awesome package, i was wondering if it was maintained.

There are many vulnerabilities associated with get-ip-range and ip,

Could you perhaps drop them or replace them with another package?

Thanks in advance

They are both user input vulnerabilites, so it shouldn't be an issue

While i get the point, the problem is npm always shows an critical error, also there's a pending dependabot issue. While both can be overridden by using npm overrides, i think its better to update to module downstream rather than upstream.

I just released a new package that allows you to get the list of IPs on the current network. It doesn't use ARP but generates all possible existing IPs (https://www.npmjs.com/package/network-ip-list).

Using this package would eliminate dependencies on ip and get-ip-range. I'm considering creating a new package that builds on this one and integrates the pingServer function to achieve the same result of local-devices, but with fewer external dependencies.

What do you think?
