Go modules use Minimum Version Selection; library modules are generally expected to specify the most minimum version required to use the project, allowing users of the module to use any SemVer compatible version higher than that.

Are there any security issues with the v1.0.5 version in the current release?

Note that the dependency is already updated in the repository (but not yet in a tagged release);

• build(deps): bump github.com/spf13/pflag from 1.0.5 to 1.0.6 #1979
