How to fix?

Upgrade org.webjars.npm:vm2 to version 3.11.7 or higher.

Overview

org.webjars.npm:vm2 is a sandbox that can run untrusted code with whitelisted Node's built-in modules.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Defaults via the require process in the CLI tool. An attacker can execute arbitrary code in the host environment by supplying a malicious script that leverages require(__filename) to escape the sandbox and access host modules.
