Bumps qs to 6.16.2 and updates ancestor dependency express. These dependencies need to be updated together.

Updates qs from 6.11.0 to 6.16.2

Changelog

Sourced from qs's changelog.

6.16.2

  • [Fix] stringify: encode keys when allowEmptyArrays is set (#561)
  • [meta] use double quotes for better OS support
  • [Dev Deps] update evalmd, npmignore
  • [Tests] stringify: pin allowEmptyArrays output for keys that need no encoding

6.16.1

  • [Fix] parse: do not mutate an object input
  • [Fix] stringify: stop re-encoding structural separator dots when encodeDotInKeys is set (#564)
  • [Fix] stringify: arrayFormat: 'comma': pass the full encoder arguments with encodeValuesOnly
  • [Fix] utils: encode + as %2B in iso-8859-1 mode so values round-trip (#565)
  • [Fix] parse: only convert top-level dots to brackets when allowDots is on (#621)
  • [Fix] stringify: ignore inherited array format names (#622)
  • [Fix] stringify: arrayFormat: 'comma': do not throw on elements with no callable toString
  • [Fix] utils: merge: seed an overflow container's index from its own keys, not just the source
  • [Fix] utils: merge: keep a strictMerge conflict container's index and arrayLimit correct
  • [Fix] parse: only treat [] as array syntax when it ends the key
  • [Perf] decode: skip decoders when there is no percent sign (#583)
  • [Robustness] utils: merge: apply arrayLimit to the two-element array built for colliding values
  • [Robustness] parse: bound the nesting added by repeated strictMerge conflicts (credit @​Yeaseen)
  • [Docs] document that qs and flat parsers disagree about parameter names
  • [Docs] clarify that throwOnLimitExceeded limits each array, not the total number of values
  • [Docs] clarify 6.14.1/6.15.2 parse bracket behavior change (#567, #568)
  • [meta] fix changelog indents
  • [actions] set least-privilege cache-mode
  • [Tests] utils: decode: add missing cases
  • [Tests] parse: characterize the ]= split when an = precedes any bracket group (#620)
  • [Tests] parse: allowDots: cover stray close brackets before a dot
  • [Dev Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config, eslint, tape

6.16.0

  • [New] stringify: add a depth option to bound recursion depth (default Infinity)
  • [Fix] stringify: serialize Date values when a filter is provided
  • [Fix] parse: enforce arrayLimit on comma groups under []= when throwOnLimitExceeded is set
  • [Fix] parse: flatten a collection appended to an overflowed array (#571)
  • [Fix] utils: isBuffer: do not invoke a non-callable constructor.isBuffer
  • [Fix] stringify: do not let allowEmptyArrays skip cycle detection (or drop own keys) on an empty array with own properties
  • [Fix] stringify: encode dots in a top-level key with a primitive value when encodeDotInKeys is set (#562)
  • [Docs] threat model: clarify stringify deep-nesting DoS is caller-bounded
  • [Docs] clarify arrayLimit is a representation threshold, not an element-count cap
  • [Tests] parse: remove a test that pinned []= comma groups escaping arrayLimit
  • [Tests] stringify: pin current encodeDotInKeys separator-dot behavior
  • [Dev Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config, eslint
  • [Dev Deps] update eslint, evalmd

6.15.4

  • [Fix] stringify: encode keys when allowEmptyArrays is set (#561)
  • [meta] use double quotes for better OS support
  • [Dev Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config, evalmd, npmignore, tape
  • [Tests] stringify: pin allowEmptyArrays output for keys that need no encoding

Updates express from 4.19.2 to 4.22.3

Release notes

Sourced from express's releases.

v4.22.2

What's Changed

  • fix: restore >20 array parsing for req.query repeated keys (8d09bfe6)
    • This also unifies array-cap behavior across notations. Indexed notation (a[0]=...) was historically capped at qs's default arrayLimit of 20 even in older qs versions; after this change it also allows up to 1000 items.
  • deps: qs@~6.15.1
  • deps: body-parser@~1.20.5

New Contributors

Full Changelog: expressjs/express@v4.22.1...v4.22.2

v4.22.1

What's Changed

[!IMPORTANT]
The prior release (4.22.0) included an erroneous breaking change related to the extended query parser. There is no actual security vulnerability associated with this behavior (CVE-2024-51999 has been rejected). The change has been fully reverted in this release.
