5.3 Medium Severity bypass javascript node nodejs npm whitelist

@ @haxatron  Reported by Checkmarx Zero

Details Overview

## Summary

Whitelist bypasses in parse-url.

## Product

parse-url through 6.0.0, and versions 6.0.2, 6.0.3, 6.0.5.

## Impact

This vulnerability is capable of blacklist / whitelist SSRF bypasses

## Steps to reproduce

Convince NodeJS HTTP client to make a request to 127.0.0.1 bypassing a google.com whitelist.

```const
const http = require('http')

const url = parse("http://[email protected]")

if (url.resource === "google.com") {
   http.get(url.href)
}
```

‘?’ is a special character in URLs and anything after the ? should be interpreted as the query.

## Remediation

Update parse-url to 6.0.1 or 6.0.3.
