Symptoms
When a project has the setting NuGetAuditMode set to all, at build time there are warnings about vulnerable transitive dependencies related to this package.
Who's affected
Users are exposed if they are using previous versions of our packages, but this doesn't necessarily mean they are vulnerable.
Root cause
NuGet 6.8 released a feature called NuGetAudit and with it the possibility to scan for vulnerabilities on a project's dependency tree. That feature allowed us to detect that some of the transitive dependencies of this package had vulnerabilities, so with this patch we are making the necessary changes to resolve those warnings.
