Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

@storybook/addon-links facilitates navigation between stories within a Storybook environment, empowering developers to craft interactive demos and UI prototypes by seamlessly connecting different component states and use cases. Version 8.1.4, released on May 27, 2024, builds upon the functionality offered in version 8.1.3, which was released just days earlier on May 23, 2024.

While the core dependencies such as ts-dedent, @storybook/csf, and @storybook/global remain consistent between the two releases, subtle shifts occur within the development dependencies. Most notably, the 8.1.4 version updates its internal dependencies on other Storybook packages like @storybook/types, @storybook/router, @storybook/core-events, @storybook/manager-api, and @storybook/preview-api, and @storybook/client-logger reflecting the broader Storybook ecosystem. These updates suggest bug fixes, performance enhancements, or feature enhancements within the Storybook framework itself, impacting the addon indirectly.

For developers using @storybook/addon-links, upgrading from 8.1.3 to 8.1.4 should be relatively seamless, provided they are already aligned with the peer dependency of React versions 16.8.0 through 19.0.0-beta. The small changes likely mean that the core API remains consistent, and upgrading unlocks underlying improvements delivered across the entire Storybook platform, ensuring better compatibility and stability. Always review the broader Storybook release notes for associated changes that might impact your specific configuration or story implementation.
