I've identified multiple moderate severity vulnerabilities in the semver package while using it in my project. These vulnerabilities are detailed in the output of npm audit. The affected versions of the semver package range from 7.0.0 to 7.5.1.

Reproducible Steps:

Install the semver package by running npm install semver in your project.
Run npm audit to check for vulnerabilities in your project's dependencies.
Expected Behavior:
I expect that the packages I use, including semver, do not have known vulnerabilities that could pose a security risk to my project.

Actual Behavior:
The npm audit command has reported several moderate severity vulnerabilities in the semver package, which is concerning for the security of my project.

Additional Information:

Operating System: Windows 11
Node.js Version: 18.18.1

npm audit:

PS C:\Users\Manol\OneDrive\Documents\Personal Programming Projects\Expo\Test> npm audit
