The alert https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-desktop/network/alert/package-lock.json states we have to upgrade to cryptiles>=4.1.2 which would only be possible by updating to hapi@17.
but here we see the fix for the issue backported and release in [email protected]
This is just a record of the digging I did so others can rest easy. As long as you see cryptiles>=3.1.3 you can ignore the alert. It's annoying, I know.
