Insecure Comparison in secure-compare Versions of `secure-compare` prior to 3.0.1 are affected by a vulnerability that results in the package always returning true when comparing two strings of the same length, despite differences in the contents of those strings. ## Recommendation Upgrade to version 3.0.1 or later.
