Tailwind CSS version 1.9.2 represents a minor patch release from 1.9.1 focusing primarily on stability and incremental improvements. Both versions build upon Tailwind's core utility-first CSS framework, enabling rapid UI development through pre-defined, composable classes. Key dependencies, such as PostCSS, Autoprefixer, and various PostCSS plugins for nesting, calc functions, and purging, remain consistent between the two, ensuring continued compatibility and feature parity.
The development dependencies are also identical, pointing to consistend tooling set up for building. This suggests that 1.9.2 primarily addresses bug fixes or very minor tweaks rather than introducing significant new features.
A very small difference can be found at the unpackedSize of the dist file. Version 1.9.2 is minimally bigger. The other important difference is the releaseDate: 1.9.2 was released one day after 1.9.1.
For developers, the significance is that upgrading from 1.9.1 to 1.9.2 should be seamless, without any breaking changes or requiring code modifications. The update likely provides enhanced stability and potentially resolves edge-case issues encountered in the previous version. Keep an eye on the Tailwind CSS changelog for comprehensive details on specific fixes.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.9.2 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.
