Changelog

Sourced from qs's changelog.

6.16.0

• [New] stringify: add a depth option to bound recursion depth (default Infinity)

• [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

6.15.3

• [Fix] parse: enforce throwOnLimitExceeded for cumulative array growth via combine/merge
• [Fix] utils: respect encoding of surrogate pairs across chunks (#559)
• [Robustness] parse: throw the arrayLimit error before splitting oversized comma values
• [Robustness] utils.merge / utils.assign: avoid invoking __proto__ setter when copying own properties
• [Robustness] utils: enforce arrayLimit consistently across merge's array paths
• [Perf] utils: make compact O(n) via a side-channel visited-set instead of Array.indexOf
• [Deps] update side-channel
• [Dev Deps] update eslint, mock-property, tape
• [Tests] parse: characterize current lenient handling of unbalanced bracket keys (#558)

6.15.2

• [Fix] stringify: skip null/undefined entries in arrayFormat: 'comma' + encodeValuesOnly instead of crashing in encoder
• [Fix] stringify: use configured delimiter after charsetSentinel (#555)
• [Fix] stringify: apply formatter to encoded key under strictNullHandling (#554)
• [Fix] stringify: skip null/undefined filter-array entries instead of crashing in encoder (#551)
• [Fix] parse: handle nested bracket groups and add regression tests (#530); changes output for some unbalanced bracket keys (see #558)
• [readme] fix grammar (#550)
• [Dev Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config
• [Tests] add regression tests for keys containing percent-encoded bracket text

6.15.1

• [Fix] parse: parameterLimit: Infinity with throwOnLimitExceeded: true silently drops all parameters
• [Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config
• [Dev Deps] update @ljharb/eslint-config, iconv-lite
• [Tests] increase coverage

Security Scan Results

Scan Metadata

• Project: ASH
• Scan executed: 2026-09-03T02:44:33+00:00
• ASH version: 3.2.2

Summary

Scanner Results

The table below shows findings by scanner, with status based on severity thresholds and dependencies:

Column Explanations:

Severity Levels (S/C/H/M/L/I):

• Suppressed (S): Security findings that have been explicitly suppressed/ignored and don't affect the scanner's pass/fail status
• Critical (C): The most severe security vulnerabilities requiring immediate remediation (e.g., SQL injection, remote code execution)
• High (H): Serious security vulnerabilities that should be addressed promptly (e.g., authentication bypasses, privilege escalation)
• Medium (M): Moderate security risks that should be addressed in normal development cycles (e.g., weak encryption, input validation issues)
• Low (L): Minor security concerns with limited impact (e.g., information disclosure, weak recommendations)
• Info (I): Informational findings for awareness with minimal security risk (e.g., code quality suggestions, best practice recommendations)

Other Columns:

• Time: Duration taken by each scanner to complete its analysis
• Action: Total number of actionable findings at or above the configured severity threshold that require attention

Scanner Results:

• PASSED: Scanner found no security issues at or above the configured severity threshold - code is clean for this scanner
• FAILED: Scanner found security vulnerabilities at or above the threshold that require attention and remediation
• MISSING: Scanner could not run because required dependencies/tools are not installed or available
• SKIPPED: Scanner was intentionally disabled or excluded from this scan
• ERROR: Scanner encountered an execution error and could not complete successfully

Severity Thresholds (Thresh Column):

• CRITICAL: Only Critical severity findings cause scanner to fail
• HIGH: High and Critical severity findings cause scanner to fail
• MEDIUM (MED): Medium, High, and Critical severity findings cause scanner to fail
• LOW: Low, Medium, High, and Critical severity findings cause scanner to fail
• ALL: Any finding of any severity level causes scanner to fail

Threshold Source: Values in parentheses indicate where the threshold is configured:

• (g) = global: Set in the global_settings section of ASH configuration
• (c) = config: Set in the individual scanner configuration section
• (s) = scanner: Default threshold built into the scanner itself

Statistics calculation:

• All statistics are calculated from the final aggregated SARIF report
• Suppressed findings are counted separately and do not contribute to actionable findings
• Scanner status is determined by comparing actionable findings to the threshold
