Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@babel/preset-env version 7.25.0 brings several updates and bug fixes compared to the previous stable version 7.24.8, making it a worthwhile upgrade for developers using Babel. The core change lies within its dependencies, where several packages like @babel/compat-data, @babel/plugin-transform-classes, @babel/plugin-transform-block-scoping, @babel/plugin-transform-function-name, @babel/plugin-transform-modules-systemjs, @babel/plugin-transform-async-generator-functions and some bugfix plugins have been updated to newer versions.

Specifically, developers will benefit from the updated bugfix plugins such as @babel/plugin-bugfix-firefox-class-in-computed-class-key, @babel/plugin-bugfix-safari-class-field-initializer-scope, @babel/plugin-bugfix-v8-static-class-fields-redefine-readonly, and @babel/plugin-transform-duplicate-named-capturing-groups-regex which enhance the reliability and correctness of transpiled code, especially when targeting specific browser environments like Firefox, Safari, and V8-based engines, resolving edge cases and ensuring better compatibility. These improvements make the latest version of @babel/preset-env a more robust choice for projects requiring precise and accurate transpilation across diverse JavaScript runtimes. Additionally, the bump of @babel/compat-data ensures that preset-env has the latest data, which is very important and will let developers write modern javascript that will be correctly transpiled.

Furthermore, dependencies @babel/core and @babel/traverse are updated in devDependencies which indicates improvements in the tooling used during development, potentially leading to better performance or new capabilities when working with Babel.
