It advises you to instal: npm install --save-dev serverless-dynamodb-local@1.0.2

Expected Behaviour

It should offer to install the verson 0.2.37 as that is the latest version of the package. This is because npm registry version has 1.0.0, 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 version published 3 years ago.

Screenshot 2019-04-07 at 08 47 02

Steps to reproduce it

run npm audit

Would you like to work on the issue?

May be, it require npm publish access to fix this issue.

Potential options:

  1. Depricate npm releases 1.0.0, 1.0.1 and 1.0.2.
  2. Release a new version 1.2.38

I know that option 2 is against how semver works. In this case publishing those 1.x version has lead to this issue. However this will set things on the right track for future releases. Essentially you are doing a fake release to realign semver releases.
