Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix a security vulnerability by upgrading the qn package. However, my review found two critical issues:
- The proposed upgrade to
[email protected]does not resolve the underlying ReDoS vulnerability in itsmimedependency. - The upgrade introduces a breaking change in the
qnlibrary's API, which would affect this project'sshotQNfunctionality.
Given that the qn package is unmaintained, I recommend rejecting this PR and instead migrating to the official qiniu SDK. This will address the security concern properly and ensure future maintainability.

This upgrade from qn version 0.2.2 to 1.3.0 does not resolve the identified security vulnerability and introduces a breaking change.
Security Vulnerability
The Snyk report indicates this change is to fix a ReDoS vulnerability in the mime package (npm:mime:20170907). This vulnerability affects versions of mime prior to 1.4.1.
[email protected]depends onmime@~1.2.11.[email protected]depends on[email protected].
Since [email protected] is still less than 1.4.1, the project remains vulnerable even after this upgrade.
Breaking Change
This version bump is a major version change (0.x to 1.x) and introduces a breaking change in the qnClient.upload() method's callback signature. This will break the shotQN functionality in this library.
Recommendation
The qn package has not been updated in over 7 years and should be considered unmaintained. The recommended course of action is to migrate to the official Qiniu SDK, qiniu, to resolve this and other potential security issues.
Because this PR does not fix the vulnerability and introduces a breaking change, it should be closed. A new issue should be created to track the migration from qn to qiniu.
