Web UI Release Notes

Recently Released Changes

What’s New in Web UI for LTS 2025 (Version 2025.5.0)

Node.js 22 Upgrade Enhancements for functional tests -

• Migrated from CommonJS to ES Modules (ESM): Replaced all require() statements with import syntax to align with the modern JavaScript module system supported in Node.js 22.

• Explicit .js Extensions in Imports: Updated all internal import statements to include the .js file extension, as required in ESM environments for proper module resolution.

• Dual Compatibility with Node.js 18 and 22: Ensured all functional tests remain compatible with both Node.js 18 and Node.js 22 to support teams in transition while preserving stability.

• Please refer to the upgrade notes for detailed information.

Security and vulnerability fixes –

• Replaced @polymer/marked-element with a custom Markdown rendering wrapper to enhance security and eliminate the vulnerability associated with the marked package.

• Clarified "inflight" vulnerability as a false positive — the affected dependency is only used in development and testing scripts and does not impact the core functionality of Web UI.

• Removed dependency of commons-lang due to a security vulnerability.

• Replaced deprecated ::set-output command with the new $GITHUB_OUTPUT method to ensure compatibility and security in Github Actions.

Other Noteworthy Changes

• Reordered the loading of addons during WebUI initialization for better optimization.

• Fixed Checkbox state now properly clears on deselection in list view to ensure accurate accessibility feedback.

• Local permissions in user profile now refresh automatically when revisiting the page—no hard refresh needed to get the latest updates.
