Problem
The current base node Docker image used in our application has a possible security vulnerability as flagged by Snyk (Improper certificate validation), which can cause the Node process to terminate. This can result in denial of service.
This PR upgrades the Docker image to
node:fermium-alpine3.13
, which upgrades our node version used to v14. The image does not seem to have any known vulnerabilities flagged.Tested on staging.
Closes #2027
