Node.js — Node.js 15.5.0 (Current)

Michaël Zasso

Notable Changes

OpenSSL-1.1.1i

OpenSSL-1.1.1i contains a fix for CVE-2020-1971: OpenSSL - EDIPARTYNAME NULL pointer de-reference (High). This is a vulnerability in OpenSSL which may be exploited through Node.js. You can read more about it in https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20201208.txt

Contributed by Myles Borins #36520.

Extended support for `AbortSignal` in child_process and stream

The following APIs now support an AbortSignal in their options object:

child_process.spawn()

Calling .abort() on the corresponding AbortController is similar to calling .kill() on the child process except the error passed to the callback will be an AbortError:

const  = new ();
const {  } = ;
const  = spawn('grep', ['ssh'], {  });
.on('error',  => {
  // This will be called with err being an AbortError if the controller aborts
});
.(); // stops the process

new stream.Writable() and new stream.Readable()

Calling .abort() on the corresponding AbortController will behave the same way as calling .destroy(new AbortError()) on the stream:

const {  } = ('stream');
const  = new ();
const  = new ({
  () {
    // ...
  },
  : .,
});
// Later, abort the operation closing the stream
.();

Contributed by Benjamin Gruenbaum #36431, #36432.

BigInt support in `querystring.stringify()`

If querystring.stringify() is called with an object that contains BigInt values, they will now be serialized to their decimal representation instead of the empty string:

const  = ('querystring');
.(.({ : 2n ** 64n }));
// Prints: bigint=18446744073709551616

Contributed by Darshan Sen #36499.

Additions to the C++ embedder APIs

A new IsolateSettingsFlag is available for those calling SetIsolateUpForNode(): SHOULD_NOT_SET_PREPARE_STACK_TRACE_CALLBACK can be used to prevent Node.js from setting a custom callback to prepare stack traces.

Contributed by Shelley Vohr #36447.

Added node::GetEnvironmentIsolateData() and node::GetArrayBufferAllocator() to respectively get the current IsolateData* and, from it, the current Node.js ArrayBufferAllocator if there is one.

Contributed by Anna Henningsen #36441.

New core collaborator

With this release, we welcome a new Node.js core collaborator:
