Telejson is a useful library for developers who need to transfer complex data structures between different environments or processes. Version 5.2.0 introduces some improvements over its predecessor, version 5.1.1. Both versions share the same core dependencies, including lodash, is-regex, isobject, is-symbol, is-function and memoizerific, ensuring consistent functionality for handling various data types. This indicates a stable foundation for data teleportation.
The key differences between the versions lie in their distribution packages. Telejson 5.2.0 has a larger unpacked size of 24618 bytes, compared to 21042 bytes in version 5.1.1 reflecting potentially more bundled features, optimizations, or updated code. Telejson 5.2.0 comprised of 7 files whereas version 5.1.1 had 5 files.
Developers should note the release dates: version 5.2.0 was published on May 10, 2021, while version 5.1.1 was released on April 6, 2021. This suggests that v5.2.0 may contain bug fixes or feature enhancements implemented after the previous stable release. Both releases maintain consistent development dependencies, suggesting no specific new development tools or testing frameworks were introduced during the update. The MIT license and repository link further indicate the project's commitment to open-source principles and community collaboration. By upgrading to v5.2.0, developers may benefit from the stability improvements and optimizations included in the more recent release, ensuring efficient and reliable data transfer in their applications.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 5.2.0 of the package
min-document vulnerable to prototype pollution
A vulnerability exists in the 'min-document' package prior to version 2.19.0, stemming from improper handling of namespace operations in the removeAttributeNS method. By processing malicious input involving the proto property, an attacker can manipulate the prototype chain of JavaScript objects, leading to denial of service or arbitrary code execution. This issue arises from insufficient validation of attribute namespace removal operations, allowing unintended modification of critical object prototypes. The vulnerability remains unaddressed in the latest available version.
