CVE-2025-15284 qs's arrayLimit bypass in its bracket notation allows DoS via memory exhaustion

[cristianrgreco]

Hi,

We're getting high severity vulnerability reports due to a dependency of node-vault. Would it be possible to update the version of postman-request to pull in the patched version of qs? NPM audit force fix is suggesting to downgrade node-vault from 0.10 to 0.9 which isn't ideal.

# npm audit report

Hello,

we have the same problem/alert.

We also don't want to downgrade node-vault as recommended by the npm audit. 🤯

The issue is on postman-request side.

postmanlabs/postman-request#110 must be merged and a postman-request should be released
