CVE-2021-21366

Hi,

A vulnerability has been reported on xmldom

xmldom is a pure JavaScript W3C standard-based (XML DOM Level 2 Core) DOMParser and XMLSerializer module. xmldom versions 0.4.0 and older do not correctly preserve system identifiers, FPIs or namespaces when repeatedly parsing and serializing maliciously crafted documents. This may lead to unexpected syntactic changes during XML processing in some downstream applications. This is fixed in version 0.5.0. As a workaround downstream applications can validate the input and reject the maliciously crafted documents.

Hi @dbashford ,

I'm wondering... any particular reason your specifying exact dependencies versions from your package.json?
Allowing any compatible version would make your library forward compatible with these kind of fixes...
