• v0.6.0 Changes

  May 20, 2022

  ➕ Added

  • authenticate(), req#login, and req#logout accept a keepSessionInfo: true option to keep session information after regenerating the session.

  🔄 Changed

  • req#login() and req#logout() regenerate the the session and clear session 0️⃣ information by default.
  • req#logout() is now an asynchronous function and requires a callback function as the last argument.

  🔒 Security

  • 👌 Improved robustness against session fixation attacks in cases where there is physical access to the same system or the application is susceptible to cross-site scripting (XSS).

• v0.5.3 Changes

  May 16, 2022

  🛠 Fixed

  • initialize() middleware extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions ⏪ again, reverting change from 0.5.1.

• v0.5.2 Changes

  December 16, 2021

  🛠 Fixed

  • Introduced a compatibility layer for strategies that depend directly on [email protected] or earlier (such as passport-azure-ad), which were broken by the removal of private variables in [email protected].

• v0.5.1 Changes

  December 15, 2021

  ➕ Added

  • 👍 Informative error message in session strategy if session support is not available.

  🔄 Changed

  • authenticate() middleware, rather than initialize() middleware, extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions.

• v0.5.0 Changes

  September 23, 2021

  🔄 Changed

  • initialize() middleware extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions.

  ✂ Removed

  • login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions no longer added to http.IncomingMessage.prototype.

  🛠 Fixed

  • userProperty option to initialize() middleware only affects the current request, rather than all requests processed via singleton Passport instance, eliminating a race condition in situations where initialize() middleware is 👉 used multiple times in an application with userProperty set to different values.
