TL;DR

The release adds explicit guards in core merge/assign-like utilities to prevent prototype pollution by blocking or safely handling dangerous object keys (e.g., __proto__, constructor, prototype) during merge/pick/omit/assign operations. It also adds tests to confirm attacker payloads do not pollute Object.prototype/Function.prototype.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
