Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, upgrades the body-parser dependency to version 1.20.4. This is a beneficial update for keeping dependencies current. My review highlights a significant change in an intermediate version (1.20.3) concerning the default parsing depth. While it doesn't appear to impact your current implementation, it's an important detail to be aware of for future development.

This upgrade to body-parser@1.20.4 includes a potentially breaking change introduced in version 1.20.3. The default depth for parsing URL-encoded bodies has been changed from Infinity to 32.
While your current usage in app.js seems unaffected as it only handles flat objects, it's important to be aware of this change. If you plan to handle deeply nested objects (more than 32 levels) in the future, you will need to explicitly configure the depth option in bodyParser.urlencoded().
For example, to restore the previous behavior of unlimited depth, you would configure it like this:
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true, depth: Infinity }));
Snyk has created this PR to upgrade body-parser from 1.20.1 to 1.20.4.
ℹ️ Keep your dependencies up-to-date. This makes it easier to fix existing vulnerabilities and to more quickly identify and fix newly disclosed vulnerabilities when they affect your project.
The recommended version is 3 versions ahead of your current version.
The recommended version was released a month ago.
