I ran npm audit today and a dependency of node-ipinfo has a vulnerability:

$ npm audit
                                                                                
                       === npm audit security report ===

It seems that upgrading an indirect package is complicated (see StackOverflow thread), so the easiest would be to change the version in package.json, I think.
