Thanks for the PR!
This makes sense to me and I prefer it over the other solution, though I'll wait to hear from others on the team before merging.

Motivation
Same motivation as #2285 to fix the reported security vulnerability, but instead of upgrading
uuid, I propose to replace it with the nativecrypto.randomUUID(). This also reduces dependencies by 2.I'm not sure what the baseline requirements for this project are, but
crypto.randomUUIDis well established.Solution
Replace dependency
uuidwith nativecrypto.randomUUID()
