Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for node-moment.

CVE-2022-24785[0]:
| Moment.js is a JavaScript date library for parsing, validating,
| manipulating, and formatting dates. A path traversal vulnerability
| impacts npm (server) users of Moment.js between versions 1.0.1 and
| 2.29.1, especially if a user-provided locale string is directly used
| to switch moment locale. This problem is patched in 2.29.2, and the
| patch can be applied to all affected versions. As a workaround,
| sanitize the user-provided locale name before passing it to Moment.js.
