dot-prop is pulled in to this module by the dependency chain [email protected] > [email protected] > [email protected] > [email protected] > dot-prop@^4.1.0.

dot-prop at 5.1.0 and earlier is subject to CVE-2020-8116:

Prototype pollution vulnerability in dot-prop npm package version 5.1.0 and earlier allows an attacker to add arbitrary properties to JavaScript language constructs such as objects.

This is resolved in npm-check-updates in version 4. I've made PR #40 as a speculative fix.
