QID 984057: Nodejs (npm) Security Update for ecstatic (GHSA-vwjc-q9px-r9vq)

Versions of `ecstatic` prior to 1.4.0 are affected by a denial of service vulnerability when certain input strings are sent via the `Last-Modified` or `If-Modified-Since` headers. Parsing certain inputs with `new Date()` or `Date.parse()` cases v8 to crash. As ecstatic passes the value of the affected headers into one of these functions, sending certain inputs via one of the headers will cause the server to crash. ## Recommendation Update to version 1.4.0 or later.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.
