React version 0.7.1 is a minor update to the 0.7.0 release of this JavaScript module, both designed to simplify asynchronous coding. The library provides a lightweight rules engine, streamlining asynchronous workflows by minimizing boilerplate and enhancing error handling. It achieves this while also allowing dependency management for variables and tasks within defined flows. Both versions share the same dependencies: amdefine, ensure-array, and eventemitter2, and the same devDependencies: chai, jake, mocha, Deferred, and requirejs, suggesting a focus on stability and refinement rather than substantial feature additions between releases. The core functionality remains consistent: aiding developers in managing asynchronous operations more effectively.
The key difference between the two versions lies within the release date and potentially some bug fixes or very minor internal adjustments. Version 0.7.1 was released approximately an hour and a half after version 0.7.0. For developers already using the library, upgrading to version 0.7.1 offers the benefit of any potential stability improvements or minor bug resolutions made since the initial 0.7.0 release. The library is maintained by Jeff Barczewski with the source code available on GitHub. For developers dealing with complex asynchronous logic, React (versions 0.7.0 and 0.7.1) offers a structured approach to improve code clarity and maintainability.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 0.7.1 of the package
Cross-Site Scripting in react
Versions of react
prior to 0.14.0 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The package's createElement
function fails to properly validate its input object, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser.
Upgrade to version 0.14.0 or later.
