Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@storybook/addon-links versions 6.4.12 and 6.4.10 offer developers a way to create interactive Storybook prototypes by linking stories together. Both versions share the same core functionality, description, and maintain the same peer dependencies on React and ReactDOM, requiring versions ^16.8.0 or ^17.0.0. They also bundle similar tooling, including qs for query string parsing, global for environment detection, and core-js for ES5/ES6 compatibility. Key components like @storybook/csf, @storybook/addons, @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, and @storybook/client-logger are also present in both, ensuring consistent integration with the Storybook environment.

The primary difference between the two lies in the versioning of the internal Storybook dependencies. Version 6.4.12 updates @storybook/addons, @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, and @storybook/client-logger to their respective 6.4.12 versions, aligning the addon with the latest bug fixes and performance improvements within the Storybook 6.4 branch. Version 6.4.10 carries older versions of this dependencies which are the 6.4.10. These updates usually address minor issues and don't introduce breaking changes. So, developers are encouraged to upgrade to 6.4.12 for a more stable and up-to-date experience within the Storybook ecosystem. The release of version 6.4.12 was on January 11, 2022, a day after the release of the version 6.4.10.
