Summary
This PR fixes CVE-2025-7783 by upgrading form-data from 3.x to 4.0.5 using npm overrides.
CVE Details
Vulnerability Description
The form-data package versions 3.0.0 through 3.0.3 use Math.random() for generating multipart boundaries, which is not cryptographically secure. This could allow an attacker to predict boundaries and potentially bypass security controls or manipulate form submissions.
Fix Method
This PR uses npm's overrides feature to force all transitive dependencies to use form-data ^4.0.5.
Why npm overrides?
Breaking Changes
Minor API changes in form-data 4.x:
Impact: LOW - The application uses form-data as a transitive dependency, not directly. No code changes required.
