Code Review

This pull request upgrades axios from version 0.21.4 to 0.30.2 to resolve multiple security vulnerabilities. This is a crucial update for security. However, this is a significant version jump that includes several documented breaking changes which could potentially impact your application's functionality. I have added a comment to package.json detailing these potential breaking changes. I strongly recommend thorough regression testing to ensure that the upgrade does not introduce any issues, particularly around error handling, FormData requests, and proxy configurations.

"axios": "^0.21.1",
"axios": "^0.30.2",

high

Upgrading axios from ^0.21.1 to ^0.30.2 is a significant jump that spans multiple versions and includes several breaking changes, despite this PR not being marked as a major upgrade. Please be sure to test the application thoroughly, paying close attention to the following areas:

  • Error Handling (v0.22.0): The structure of error objects for requests that receive response data but no status code has changed.
  • Requests to TLDs (v0.24.0): Axios now throws an error for requests made to a top-level domain (e.g., http://example/).
  • Proxy Configuration (v0.25.0): The proxy config option can no longer be used to set proxy headers. If you use this, you'll need to refactor.
  • Request Body Type (v0.26.0): Axios now throws a TypeError if the request body is of an incorrect type.
  • FormData Requests (v0.27.0): Axios now uses the form-data library to handle FormData requests, which might affect how these requests behave.
  • Redirects in Node.js (v0.28.0): Redirects are now followed by default in Node.js environments.

Given these changes, extensive testing is highly recommended to ensure the application continues to function as expected.
