[Security] Bump lodash from 3.10.1 to 4.17.11

[dependabot-preview]

Bumps lodash from 3.10.1 to 4.17.11. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The Node Security Working Group.

lodash prototype pollution
lodash node module before 4.17.5 suffers from a prototype pollution vulnerability via 'defaultsDeep', 'merge', and 'mergeWith' functions, which allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of 'Object' via proto, causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.

Affected versions: <4.17.5

Release notes

Sourced from lodash's releases.

4.0.0

lodash v4.0.0

2015 was big year! Lodash became the most depended on npm package, passed 1 billion downloads, & its v3 release saw massive adoption!

The year was also one of collaboration, as discussions began on merging Lodash & Underscore. Much of Lodash v4 is proofing out the ideas from those discussions. Lodash v4 would not be possible without the collaboration & contributions of the Underscore core team. In the spirit of merging our teams have blended with several members contributing to both libraries.

For 2016 & lodash v4.0.0 we wanted to cut loose, push forward, & take things up a notch!

Modern only

With v4 we’re breaking free from old projects, old environments, & dropping old IE < 9 support!

4 kB Core

Lodash’s kitchen-sink size will continue to grow as new methods & functionality are added. However, we now offer a 4 kB (gzipped) core build that’s compatible with Backbone v1.2.4 for folks who want Lodash without lugging around the kitchen sink.

More ES6

We’ve continued to embrace ES6 with methods like _.isSymbol, added support for cloning & comparing array buffers, maps, sets, & symbols, converting iterators to arrays, & iterable _(…).

In addition, we’ve published an es-build & pulled babel-plugin-lodash into core to make tree-shaking a breeze.

More Modular

Pop quiz! 📣

What category path does the bindAll method belong to? Is it

A) require('lodash/function/bindAll')
B) require('lodash/utility/bindAll')
C) require('lodash/util/bindAll')

Don’t know? Well, with v4 it doesn’t matter because now module paths are as simple as

var bindAll = require('lodash/bindAll');

We’ve also reduced module complexity making it easier to create smaller bundles. This has helped Lodash adoption with libraries like Async & Redux!

1st Class FP

With v3 we introduced lodash-fp. We learned a lot & with v4 we decided to pull it into core.

Now you can get immutable, auto-curried, iteratee-first, data-last methods as simply as

var _ = require('lodash/fp');
var object = { 'a': 1 };
</table> ... (truncated)
