Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Read-package-json has released version 7.0.0, a notable update from the previous stable version 6.0.4, enhancing how Node.js developers handle package.json files. Both versions serve the core function of reliably reading and interpreting these crucial files, ensuring consistency and proper defaults. The key difference lies in the updated dependencies. Version 7.0.0 upgrades "normalize-package-data" from version 5.0.0 to 6.0.0. While not explicitly stated, this likely brings improvements in package data normalization, potentially including enhanced validation, security fixes, or support for newer package.json features. The devDependencies also show some interesting changes with "@npmcli/template-oss" moving from 4.15.1 to 4.18.0, suggesting improvements in the project's template generation and contribution workflow for the package developers, but not directly impacting consumers of read-package-json. The filecount of dist is the same, but the unpackedSize suffered a slight increase from 20634 to 20709. Developers using read-package-json will benefit from these updates through a more robust and secure handling of package.json data. The upgrade of the normalize-package-data dependency is particularly noteworthy, potentially addressing edge cases or vulnerabilities and generally improving the accuracy and reliability of package metadata interpretation. The release date also showcases recent activity, making it a trustworthy regular updated package.
