GitHub's Security Warning on tar package

Opened this issue · 0 comments

GitHub is currently warning us about a security issue in the tar package in the dev dependency chain.

In the context it's used, it's not a security risk, nor is it installed by users of the Atom package.

Once electron-rebuild updates to the latest node-gyp, or node-gyp back-ports the fix, we can update the package anyway.

$ npm audit

                       === npm audit security report ===
