A huge thank you to everyone who helped identify and address security issues in this release!
- @CopperKoi — For discovering and reporting the security vulnerability in #383.
- @notwo1f — For assisting with the vulnerability research and investigation.
- @khawarahemad — For contributing to the investigation and fixes.
Some of the proposed fix PRs couldn't be merged directly because I was already working on a major refactor. However, their reports and contributions were still extremely helpful, and the necessary fixes have been incorporated into this release.
Thank you for your time and effort! ❤️
