Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Angular Common, a fundamental module in the Angular framework providing essential directives and services for building robust applications, saw a minor version update from 12.2.2 to 12.2.3. Both versions share the same core description, dependencies on tslib, and peer dependencies on rxjs and @angular/core. The files number of the dist are the same. Notably, they are both released on august of 2021. The primary difference lies in the version of @angular/core that each version peers with. Version 12.2.2 requires @angular/core@12.2.2, while 12.2.3 expects @angular/core@12.2.3.

For developers, this means upgrading from @angular/common@12.2.2 to 12.2.3 necessitates a corresponding update of @angular/core to version 12.2.3 to maintain compatibility and avoid potential runtime errors. Although the unpacked size is the same, the new version was released roughly a week after the previous one. This update likely includes bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature enhancements that are tightly coupled with the corresponding @angular/core release. Therefore, if you're using Angular 12.2, keeping both @angular/common and @angular/core synchronized at the latest patch version (12.2.3 in this case) is recommended. Always consult the official Angular changelog for a detailed breakdown of the changes introduced in each patch release.
