   Thanks @raphinesse, updated title yet again to reflect what we actually want 
to do in the patch release.
   
   TBH I have some mixed feelings, though not major. In general I would rather 
avoid including other fixes when making a security related patch. For a 
security patch we want the least risk possible that something goes wrong and 
the "end" user decides to roll back.
   
   I think the actual security risk is very low. In general I would rather keep 
it this way.
   
   Another really strange thing is that 
f05e61db07ff7b7acbcadaa6427b7b12eaac8950 seems to have a MacBook-Pro.local 
address, not linked to any user on GitHub.
   
   What do you think, any comments?

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: cordova-android, cordova-app-hello-world, 
> cordova-browser, cordova-cli, cordova-coho, cordova-common, cordova-fetch, 
> cordova-ios, cordova-js, cordova-lib, cordova-osx, cordova-windows

> From private discussions I discovered that running {{npm audit}} on a number 
> of components would report dependencies with security issues. While we could 
> not see any {{npm audit}} issues that may affect applications built using 
> Cordova I think it is extremely important to resolve these issues as soon as 
> possible. Most affect devDependencies used for testing of Cordova itself; a 
> minority seem to affect Cordova scripts that may be run by Cordova 
> application developers. Better safe than sorry!
> I would like to resolve this issue as follows:
> * patch release of common library components such as {{cordova-common}}, 
> {{cordova-lib}}, etc. (fixed in minor release branch)
> * patch or minor release of other affected components such as CLI, Cordova 
> platform implementations, major plugins, etc. (expected to be fixed in minor 
> release branch; do not want to pollute the master branch with extra reverts, 
> updated node_modules committed, etc.)
> * {{npm audit}} issues resolved in master branch for next major release, 
> which should NOT be shipped with any {{npm audit}} issues lurking
> * {{npm audit}} step added to CI for both patch release and next major release
