GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2023-28154

Webpack 5 before 5.76.0 does not avoid cross-realm object access. ImportParserPlugin.js mishandles the magic comment feature. An attacker who controls a property of an untrusted object can obtain access to the real global object.

performance

v5.35.0

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• fix handling of build dependencies with # in path

Performance

• improve memory usage when using the filesystem cache

When reading a file into a Buffer and picking smaller slices of the Buffer
the small slices still keep a reference to the large original Buffer.
The leads to increased memory usage. A fix would be to clone the slice into
a smaller Buffer when wasting too much memory, but this has a performance cost.
There is now a new option cache.allowCollectingMemory which controls that.
For one-off builds you probably want allowCollectingMemory: false and
for watch builds you probably want allowCollectingMemory: true.
It defaults to false in production mode and true in development mode.

• add experiments.executeModule to allow build-time execution of modules of the module graph
  • add this.importModule(request, options, [callback]): Promise to the loader context
  • add compilation.executeModule(request, options, callback) for plugins

v5.31.2

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• revert disposing of CodeGenerationResults since some plugins rely on the fact that they are still accessible after the compilation

v5.31.1

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• invalid hooks is no longer called twice for a compiler in a MultiCompiler

Memory

• eliminated some memory leaks
• dispose code generation results after sealing the compilation

Performance

• improve performance of cache serialization by reducing number of write syscalls

v5.31.0

Compare Source

Features

• add a few more options for infrastructure logging:
  • infrastructureLogging.colors: Enables/Disables colorful output.
  • infrastructureLogging.appendOnly: Only appends lines to the output. Avoids updating existing output e. g. for status messages.
  • infrastructureLogging.stream: Stream used for logging output. Defaults to process.stderr.
  • infrastructureLogging.console: Custom console used for logging.
  • When stream is an TTY colors is enabled and appendOnly is disabled. Otherwise it's flipped.

Bugfixes

• Persistent Caching
  • fix caching crash when using fsevents in build dependencies
  • improve resolving of build dependencies when exports field is used
  • make problems during resolving build dependencies warnings instead of debug messages
• prioritize static reexport over runtime reexport for target determination
  • This helps in optimization by no longer opting out of optimization when some other exports any dynamic (from commonjs or empty/type-only modules)
• fix bug with subtraction of runtimes
  • This fixes a problem with concatenated modules in builds with multiple runtimes and force-merged shared chunks
• ensure that entrypoints are always re-executed when HMR-updated
  • This fixes no longer updating pages when the entrypoint crashed

v5.30.0

Compare Source

Features

• add GC to memory cache
  • opt-in via cache.maxGenerations when cache.type: "memory"
  • default for cache.type: "filesystem" and mode: "development"
  • configure via cache.maxMemoryGenerations when cache.type: "filesystem"
  • Generations = Rebuilds
• add GC for untouched filesystem cache files
• allow to configurate GC for the filesystem cache via cache.maxAge
• allow to disable memory cache when using the filesystem cache with cache.maxMemoryGenerations: 0
• Caches will be cleared on Compiler close resp Cache shutdown (after persisting for the filesystem cache)

Bugfixes

• add a few workarounds for v8 bug that causes memory leaks in optimized code (only partially fixes it)
• after serializing filesystem no longer keeps cache items in memory, instead it will read them from disk again when accessed

GC = Garbage Collection

v5.29.0

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• fix some edge cases for splitChunks.maxSize which cause too large chunks to be created
• add stats.groupModulesByType to the schema

Developer Experience

• add resolving trace for error during resolving build dependencies
• expose Stats-related types
• exports AsyncDependenciesBlock and Module/Const/NullDependency on the API

v5.28.0

Compare Source

Features

• add module.generator.asset.publicPath to configure a different publicPath for assets

Bugfixes

• fixes a watch mode caching problem which was introduced in 5.26.0 when using the unsafe cache

Performance

• improve serialization performance

v5.27.2

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• fix error reporting when errors happen in beforeLoaders hook
• avoid crash when experiments.lazyCompilation is used (regression)
• fix lazy compilation opt-out when HMR accept/decline is used on an import()
• fix new URL(new URL generated by worker handing

v5.27.1

Compare Source

Bugfix

• allow invalidation after first watch run in MultiCompilers

v5.27.0

Compare Source

Features

• add utils: { contextify(context, absolutePath), absolutify(context, request) } to loader context

Bugfixes

• fix caching bug when split chunks of an entrypoint change and modules of the entrypoint stay equal
• fix imports field handling
• fix incorrect id assignment of record ids plugin
  • this causes ids changing unnecessary during watch mode
• fix library exports when using onChunks in entry
  • This prevented using libraries with web target when using splitChunks for the initial chunks

v5.26.3

Compare Source

Bugfix

• fix race condition in MultiCompiler queueing

v5.26.2

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• fix problem with new line after comment
• fix assign libraries with runtime chunk

v5.26.1

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• avoid using strict mode runtime for assign libraries to allow assigning not existing variables
• avoid collision with Set.addAll polyfill
• allow filenames starting with ../ when generation the undo path for non-web targets

v5.26.0

Compare Source

Features

• handle cache version automatically for DefinePlugin
  • Values no longer need to be defined as build dependencies
• add more options for DefinePlugin.runtimeValue (file/context/missing/buildDependencies, version)

Bugfixes

• fix a memory leak which happens in watch mode with caching when modules are removed from the compilation
• fix usage of some arrow functions when es5 target is selected
• chunk loading in workers now uses publicPath instead of relative paths
  • fixes a problem when worker file is in a child directory

v5.25.1

Compare Source

Bugfixes

• fix startup logic when non-js chunks are in the entrypoint
• remove type: "module" for Workers when generating classic scripts

v5.25.0

Compare Source

Features

• Refactor the startup logic to improve library support
• add __webpack_runtime_id__ to access the current runtime id
• improve error handling for HMR
  • add second argument to self accept error handler to pass new module and module id
  • add error handler argument to dependency accept, passing error and module ids
• add output.strictModuleErrorHandling to opt into stricter evaluation error handling semantics according to ESM spec
  • used by default when HMR is enabled
• when ignoring a module used by new URL() this will result in an url to a empty file ("data:,")
• add module.generator.asset.emit option to disable creating assets from asset modules (e. g. for SSR)

Bugfixes

• fix problem when library options apply to a non-runtime chunk
• fix crash in splitChunks.maxSize where negative indicies are accessed
• fix sub-optimal splitting of splitChunks.maxSize in some cases when multiple size types are involved
• fix a memory leak in AssetGenerator
• fix usage of runtime globals in SharedPlugin to support HMR updates

Deprecations

• deprecate output.strictModuleExceptionHandling (this is the CommonJS way of handling errors, and the name is weird)
