@RomanNikitenko please re-review my last changes.
updated directly axios in some extensions
override all vulnerable form-data in others places.

+1 to update axios version

But I should mention that axios instance is passed to the devWorkspaceGenerator library.

Some time ago we had a problem, see devfile/devworkspace-generator#201
So - maybe it makes sense to update the axios version for that library as well.

One more question: I see there is still 2.3.3 version of the form-data is used in the launcher
Any reason why it was not fixed within the current PR?
