Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

When nanoid is called with a fractional value, there were a number of undesirable effects:

1. in browser and non-secure, the code infinite loops on while (size--)
2. in node, the value of poolOffset becomes fractional, causing calls to nanoid to return zeroes until the pool is next filled
3. if the first call in node is a fractional argument, the initial buffer allocation fails with an error

Version 3.3.8 and 5.0.9 are fixed.

A flaw was found in npm-serialize-javascript. The vulnerability occurs because the serialize-javascript module does not properly sanitize certain inputs, such as regex or other JavaScript object types, allowing an attacker to inject malicious code. This code could be executed when deserialized by a web browser, causing Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This issue is critical in environments where serialized data is sent to web clients, potentially compromising the security of the website or web application using this package.
