Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for node-braces.

CVE-2024-4068[0]:
| The NPM package `braces`, versions prior to 3.0.3, fails to limit
| the number of characters it can handle, which could lead to Memory
| Exhaustion. In `lib/parse.js,` if a malicious user sends "imbalanced
| braces" as input, the parsing will enter a loop, which will cause
| the program to start allocating heap memory without freeing it at
| any moment of the loop. Eventually, the JavaScript heap limit is
| reached, and the program will crash.
