Code Review

This pull request from Snyk upgrades the validator package to fix a security vulnerability. While the change to package.json is correct, the package-lock.json file was not updated, as noted in the PR description. This is a critical omission that must be addressed before merging. Without an updated lock file, the vulnerability will likely persist in your deployed application. Please run npm install and commit the updated package-lock.json.

[gemini-code-assist]

This version update is necessary, but the package-lock.json file has not been updated accordingly. As the Snyk bot warned in the PR description, this needs to be done manually. Without updating the lock file, your project will not use the new version, and the security vulnerability will remain. Please run npm install and commit the changes to package-lock.json.
