Node.js : Deprecated Error Messages

While setting up to explore and work with Node.js, I noted these error messages:

Installing Node Packages …
npm WARN deprecated flat@4.1.0: Fixed a prototype pollution security issue in 4.1.0, please upgrade to ^4.1.1 or ^5.0.1.
npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated resolve-url@0.2.1: https://github.com/lydell/resolve-url#deprecated
npm WARN deprecated urix@0.1.0: Please see https://github.com/lydell/urix#deprecated
npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported

Should I ignore them or is there any concern?
Or is there a way to update to the newest versions?
Do I update from within Wappler or outside of Wappler?
Or is it some files that I need to update on my local machine?

We don’t include these packages directly, they probably dependencies of some packages we use. Will check if I can figure out which packages are using them and if there is an update for them.

You can ignore them for now.

Super! Thank you Patrick. I’ll look forward to your findings.

I have updated all our dependencies and that fixes at least some of the warnings. There are still the deprecated warnings of packages that we don’t use directly. They are dependencies of packages that we use and we have to wait until they replace that dependency in their package.
