Style-loader is a crucial webpack module responsible for injecting CSS into your application. Comparing versions 0.18.0 and 0.18.1, the core functionality remains consistent. Both versions offer the same set of features for developers looking to integrate CSS styles seamlessly within their webpack workflow. Crucially, both versions share identical dependencies, including loader-utils and schema-utils, and devDependencies such as css-loader, file-loader, and webpack, indicating no significant shifts in underlying technology or compatibility.
The fundamental difference lies solely in the release date, with version 0.18.1 published a day after 0.18.0. This suggests that 0.18.1 likely addresses minor bug fixes, tiny enhancements, or documentation tweaks. For developers, this increment typically translates to increased stability and reliability. Upgrading from 0.18.0 to 0.18.1 is generally recommended to benefit from these subtle improvements without introducing breaking changes. The core functionality remains the same.
When employing style-loader, developers should be aware its MIT license grants considerable freedom in usage and modification. Both versions point to the same git repository for source code access and contributions. Therefore, for most developers, version 0.18.1 is the preferred choice, representing the latest, potentially most refined iteration within the 0.18.x series.

Prototype Pollution in Ajv
An issue was discovered in ajv.validate() in Ajv (aka Another JSON Schema Validator) 6.12.2. A carefully crafted JSON schema could be provided that allows execution of other code by prototype pollution. (While untrusted schemas are recommended against, the worst case of an untrusted schema should be a denial of service, not execution of code.)
