Summary
Withdrawn: cacheable-request depends on http-cache-semantics, which is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service
Details

This advisory is withdawn.

Summary of http-cache-semantics vulnerability

http-cache semantics contains an Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity , leading to Denial of Service. This affects versions of the package http-cache-semantics before 4.1.1.
