Code Review

This pull request upgrades express from 4.21.2 to 4.22.0 to address a security vulnerability in the qs library (SNYK-JS-QS-15268416). While the upgrade is a necessary step, the current dependency tree still contains a vulnerable version of qs (6.13.0) introduced via body-parser. Since the application uses express.urlencoded({ extended: true }), it remains exposed to the vulnerability.
