npm audit reports High vulnerability in @openzeppelin/upgrades@2.8.0 for dependency elliptic

NPM Advisory:
https://npmjs.com/advisories/1547

From ethers-io/ethers.js#985

I believe the vulnerability does not affect Ethereum, since adding null-byte padding to the front of anything signed as RLP-data or as an EIP-191 payload, mangles the meaning of its representation.
