Eslint-plugin-security has a new release, version 3.0.1, building on the foundation of version 3.0.0. Both versions focus on providing security rules for ESLint, helping developers identify and prevent potential vulnerabilities in their JavaScript code. The core functionality remains consistent, with both versions relying on safe-regex for guarding against regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) attacks.
Key differences lie primarily in the development dependencies and release details. Version 3.0.1 includes a funding link and reports a slightly larger unpacked size (140115 bytes vs 139245 bytes). The most noticeable change is the updated changelog dependency, moving from version 1.3.0 in 3.0.0 to 1.4.2 in 3.0.1. While the core linter and its rules remain consistent, this update likely involves improvements to the change logging process, making it easier for developers to track updates and understand the evolution of the plugin. The release date reflects a recent update, indicating maintained support and potential minor bug fixes or enhancements. Developers can upgrade to version 3.0.1 for the latest improvements in maintainability and a slightly refined package. Choosing between the two versions largely depends on the need for the latest changes in the changelog tooling as the core security features are identical. This plugin helps developers write secure Javascript code using ESLint.
