Breaking Changes 🔥

Direct Imports from lib/ 🔥

Direct file imports from Livingdocs packages are not supported. This release might break direct imports from lib/. Downstreams are urged to remove all direct imports. Since this has never been supported, we will not communicate such changes in the future.

Stricter Validation of Image Processing Config Properties with use2025Behavior 🔥

The server config properties mediaLibrary.images.processing.failOn, mediaLibrary.images.processing.convert, mediaLibrary.images.processing.lossy, and mediaLibrary.images.processing.lossless are not applied when use2025Behavior is enabled. Configuring them alongside use2025Behavior will now result in an error. Please remove these properties if use2025Behavior is enabled.

Removal of Deprecated Image Processing Config Properties 🔥

The deprecated server config properties mediaLibrary.images.processing.maxFileSize and mediaLibrary.images.uploadRestrictions.maxResolution are no longer supported.

Please use the following replacements instead:

  • mediaLibrary.images.processing.maxFileSizemediaLibrary.images.uploadRestrictions.maxFileSize
  • mediaLibrary.images.uploadRestrictions.maxResolutionmediaLibrary.images.processing.maxResolution

We are constantly patching module vulnerabilities for the Livingdocs Server and Livingdocs Editor as module fixes are available. Below is a list of all patched vulnerabilities included in the release.

Livingdocs Server

This release we have patched the following vulnerabilities in the Livingdocs Server:

  • TBD

No known vulnerabilities. 🎉

Livingdocs Editor

This release we have patched the following vulnerabilities in the Livingdocs Editor:

  • TBD

We are aware of the following vulnerabilities in the Livingdocs Editor:

  • CVE-2023-44270 vulnerability in postcss, it affects linters using PostCSS to parse external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). It is not exploitable in the editor as we don’t load untrusted external CSS at build time.
  • CVE-2022-25844, CVE-2022-25869, CVE-2023-26116, CVE-2023-26117, CVE-2023-26118, CVE-2024-8372, CVE-2024-8373, CVE-2024-21490, CVE-2025-0716 are all AngularJS vulnerabilities that don’t have a patch available. We are working on removing all AngularJS from our code and vulnerabilities will go away when we complete the transition to Vue.js.
  • CVE-2024-9506 vulnerability in vue, an ReDoS vulnerability exploitable through inefficient regex evaluation in parseHTML function. The issue can cause excessive CPU usage but is not exploitable in the editor as we don’t load untrusted HTML at runtime.
