auditjs vulnerability warnings

[sirudog]

Hello,

I use auditjs (https://www.npmjs.com/package/auditjs) in my CI build scripts. This generates a vulnerability report for the package dependencies my project uses. When the audit command is executed, it reports several warnings about lodash referenced by caniuse-api package. The issue is mainly about caniuse-api using older/vulnerable version of lodash packages. My question is if caniuse-api could be updated with a newer version of lodash (4.17.5 or newer), so that these audit warnings could be eliminated.

Here is the output of auditjs:

Same issue for us. The lodash dependencies are outdated
