🦉 Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

[TheRedHatter]

This is a significant version jump for a package in its pre-1.0 beta phase. While no explicit breaking changes are documented in the release notes between versions 0.16.5 and 0.50.0, the large number of intermediate versions and changes increases the risk of unintended side effects or subtle behavioral modifications.

Key Observations:

• The project is in a beta state, where APIs can change without strict adherence to semantic versioning.
• Numerous features, bug fixes, and dependency updates have occurred across the @sectester ecosystem in this range.
• There are no major API removals or renames explicitly mentioned in the release notes.

Recommendation:
Due to the wide version span and beta status of the package, a thorough validation of your integration is highly recommended after this upgrade. Pay close attention to scan configurations, execution, and report handling to ensure everything functions as it did previously.
