Release Notes

nodeca/js-yaml (js-yaml)

v4.2.0

Compare Source

Added
  • Added docs/safety.md with notes about processing untrusted YAML.
  • Added maxDepth (100) loader option. Not a problem, but gives a better
    exception instead of RangeError on stack overflow.
  • Added maxMergeSeqLength (20) loader option. Not a problem after merge fix,
    but an additional restriction for safety.
  • Added sourcemaps to dist/ builds.
Changed
  • Stop resolving numbers with underscores as numeric scalars, #​627.
  • Switched dev toolchains to Vite / neostandard.
  • Updated demo.
  • Reorganized tests.
  • dist/ files are no longer kept in the repository.
Fixed
  • Fix parsing of properties on the first implicit block mapping key, #​62.
  • Fix trailing whitespace handling when folding flow scalar lines, #​307.
  • Reject top-level block scalars without content indentation, #​280.
  • Ensure numbers survive round-trip, #​737.
  • Fix test coverage for issue #​221.
  • Fix flow scalar trailing whitespace folding, #​307.
  • Fix digits in YAML named tag handles.
Security
  • Fix potential DoS via quadratic complexity in merge - deduplicate repeated
    elements (makes sense for malformed files > 10K).
