Security review (axios 1.16.0)
Scope: Diff is limited to web/package-lock.json: axios 1.15.2 → 1.16.0 and follow-redirects ^1.15.11 → ^1.16.0. No application source changes.
Findings: No medium, high, or critical issues introduced or clearly exposed by this change.
Rationale: The bump is a patch-level dependency update with npm integrity hashes unchanged in structure (updated to match the new tarball). Prior lockfile already used axios ≥1.15.1 (GHSA-pf86-5x62-jrwf / CVE-2026-42033 prototype-pollution gadget preconditions). 1.16.0 release notes describe security-adjacent fixes (e.g. fetch adapter enforcing maxBodyLength/maxContentLength, redirect/header handling), not a disclosed regression. No new attacker-controlled sinks or auth boundaries appear in the diff.
Supply chain: Resolved URLs remain registry.npmjs.org; integrity Subresource-style verification is present for the new versions.
Slack-style summary: PR3825 axios renovate: clean — lockfile-only bump 1.15.2→1.16.0; no new vuln findings; upgrade is in line with upstream fixes.

v1.16.0 — May 2, 2026
This release adds support for the QUERY HTTP method and a new
ECONNREFUSEDerror constant, lands a substantial wave of HTTP, fetch, and XHR adapter bug fixes around redirects, aborts, headers, and timeouts, and welcomes 23 new contributors.A handful of fixes in this release are either security-adjacent or change observable behaviour. Please review before upgrading:
maxBodyLengthandmaxContentLength. These limits were silently ignored on the fetch adapter prior to 1.16.0 — anyone relying on them as a safety net (DoS protection, accidental large uploads) had no protection. (#10795)Hostheaders. Previously, the proxy path could overwrite a customHost. Virtual-host-style routing through a proxy will now behave correctly. (#10822)https://user:p%40ss@host), the decoded value is what now goes on the wire. (#10825)parseProtocolnow strictly requires a colon in the protocol separator. Strings that loosely parsed as protocols before may no longer match. (#10729)unescape()replaced with modern UTF-8 encoding. Non-ASCII URL handling is now spec-correct; consumers depending on legacyunescape()quirks may see different output bytes. (#7378)transformRequestinput typing change was reverted. The typing change introduced in #10745 was reverted in #10810 after follow-up review — net behavior is unchanged from 1.15.2. (#10745, #10810)🚀 New Features
ECONNREFUSEDas a constant onAxiosErrorso callers can match connection-refused failures without comparing string literals (closes #6485). (#10680)encodehelper frombuildURLso userland param serializers can reuse the same encoding logic that axios uses internally. (#6897)🐛 Bug Fixes
requestDetailsargument onbeforeRedirect, preserved user-suppliedHostheaders when forwarding through a proxy, and properly URL-decoded basic auth credentials. (#10794, #10800, #6241, #10822, #10825)AxiosErrorwhen a stream is aborted after headers arrive, honoured thetimeoutoption during the connect phase when redirects are disabled, and resolved an unsettled-promise hang when an aborted request was combined with compression andmaxRedirects: 0. (#10708, #10819, #7149)maxBodyLength/maxContentLengthin the fetch adapter, set theUser-Agentheader to match the HTTP adapter, preserved the original abort reason instead of replacing it with a generic error, and deferred global access so importing the module no longer throws aTypeErrorin restricted environments. (#10795, #10772, #10806, #7260)cancelTokenandAbortSignallisteners on the error, timeout, and abort code paths to prevent leaked subscriptions. (#10787)AxiosErrorwhenJSON.parsefails insidedispatchRequest, preventedsettlefrom emittingundefinederror codes, and tightened theparseProtocolregex to require a colon in the protocol separator. (#10724, #7276, #10729)CancelTokentypings with the ESM build, fixed a compiler error caused byRawAxiosHeaders, and re-exportedcreatefrom the package index. (#7414, #6389, #6460)unescape()call with a modern UTF-8 encoding implementation. (#7378)🔧 Maintenance & Chores
utilsmodule and XHR adapter to use ES6 features, and tidied the multipart boundary error message. (#10588, #7419)FormDataEPIPE failures, fixed Win32 platform support for the pipe tests, and corrected an incorrect test assumption. (#10820, #10791, #10796)paramsSerializer.encodefor strict RFC 3986 query encoding, updated theparseReviverTypeScript definitions and configuration docs for ES2023, added timeout guidance to the README's first async example, and expanded notes around the recent type changes. (#10821, #10782, #10759, #10804)transformRequestinput typing change from #10745 after follow-up review.
