--------------------------------------

Thanks for the report!

While I don't have time to work on this now, I'm willing to take a PR/patch.

Patcher may want to look at adding qs/connect - the affected packages - directly as top-level packages, which express would then pick up (maybe, if allowed for in it's package deps semvers).  May be easier at upgrading express, which is currently at 2.5 - not sure how easy upgrading to something more modern would be.

> There are known security vulnerabilities in dependencies of current version of express: qs@0.4.x and connect@1.x. See https://nodesecurity.io/advisories/qs_dos_extended_event_loop_blocking and https://nodesecurity.io/advisories/methodOverride_Middleware_Reflected_Cross-Site_Scripting for more detail. Can we bump express so that these vulnerabilities go away?
