How to Fix GHSA-fgrx-4637-fcf5

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Fuel/core dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

fuel/core fixed: 1.8.1 
Upgrade fuel/core to 1.8.1
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for fuel/core

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by GHSA-fgrx-4637-fcf5, inspect your project dependencies for Fuel/core:

inspect dependencies for fuel/core
