Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for node-follow-redirects.

CVE-2023-26159[0]:
| Versions of the package follow-redirects before 1.15.4 are
| vulnerable to Improper Input Validation due to the improper handling
| of URLs by the url.parse() function. When new URL() throws an error,
| it can be manipulated to misinterpret the hostname. An attacker
| could exploit this weakness to redirect traffic to a malicious site,
| potentially leading to information disclosure, phishing attacks, or
| other security breaches.
