This minor version upgrade of js-yaml introduces several behavioral changes that require verification.

Key Changes:

  • YAML 1.2 Compliance: The parser is now stricter. Numbers are parsed according to the YAML 1.2 specification. For example, a string like 0123 is now parsed as a decimal number, not an octal. Time-like strings such as 1:23 are now parsed as strings instead of numbers. [1]
  • Error on Empty Input: The load() function will now throw an exception when parsing an empty string or file, whereas it previously returned undefined. Code relying on the old behavior will need to be updated. [1]
  • Custom Types: The internal API for custom types has been changed. If your project defines custom YAML tags, you will need to review the updated examples and refactor your implementation. [1]
  • New Safety Limits: Version 4.2.0 introduced new loader options like maxDepth to prevent potential denial-of-service attacks from overly complex documents. These have default values and could, in rare cases, cause issues with very large or deeply nested YAML files that previously worked. [1]

Recommendation: Review code that uses load() to ensure it correctly handles exceptions for empty inputs. Verify that any YAML files with non-standard number formats are still parsed as expected after the upgrade to stricter YAML 1.2 rules. If you use custom types, a refactor will be necessary.
