Tailwind CSS, a utility-first CSS framework renowned for its rapid UI development capabilities, saw a minor version update from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. Both versions share the same core dependencies, ensuring continued compatibility with essential tools like PostCSS, Autoprefixer, and Lodash. Developers can expect consistent performance in areas such as CSS processing, browser compatibility, and utility function usage. The development dependencies also remain identical, suggesting no alteration in the testing or linting processes within the Tailwind CSS project itself, like Jest, ESLint and Prettier.
The key difference resides in the dist section, specifically the unpackedSize. Version 1.1.4 has a slightly larger unpacked size of 3,109,314 bytes compared to 1.1.3's 3,109,167 bytes. This increase, though minimal, could indicate the inclusion of new features, minor bug fixes, or adjustments to existing utilities within the framework. Similarly, the release date shows the newer version was released approximately one month after the older one so using the new one is more relevant. While the core functionalities and dependencies remain consistent, developers should review the changelog (available on the Tailwind CSS GitHub repository) for a comprehensive understanding of the specific changes introduced in version 1.1.4. This will help them determine if upgrading provides any specific benefits or addresses any previous issues they may have encountered allowing them to leverage the framework efficiently for building bespoke user interfaces
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.1.4 of the package
PostCSS line return parsing error
An issue was discovered in PostCSS before 8.4.31. It affects linters using PostCSS to parse external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). There may be \r discrepancies, as demonstrated by @font-face{ font:(\r/*);} in a rule.
This vulnerability affects linters using PostCSS to parse external untrusted CSS. An attacker can prepare CSS in such a way that it will contains parts parsed by PostCSS as a CSS comment. After processing by PostCSS, it will be included in the PostCSS output in CSS nodes (rules, properties) despite being originally included in a comment.
