This release marks the transition of Node.js 10.x into Long Term
Support (LTS) with the codename 'Dubnium'. The 10.x release line
now moves in to "Active LTS" and will remain so until April 2020.
After that time it will move in to "Maintenance" until end of
life in April 2021.
Notable Changes:
This release only includes minimal changes necessary to fix known
regressions prior to LTS.
PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23831
Notable changes:
* assert
* The diff output is now a tiny bit improved by sorting object
properties when inspecting the values that are compared with each
other. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22788
* cli
* The options parser now normalizes `_` to `-` in all multi-word
command-line flags, e.g. `--no_warnings` has the same effect as
`--no-warnings`. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23020
* Added bash completion for the `node` binary. To generate a bash
completion script, run `node --completion-bash`. The output can be
saved to a file which can be sourced to enable completion.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20713
* crypto
* Added support for PEM-level encryption.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23151
* Added an API asymmetric key pair generation. The new methods
`crypto.generateKeyPair` and `crypto.generateKeyPairSync` can be
used to generate public and private key pairs. The API supports
RSA, DSA and EC and a variety of key encodings (both PEM and DER).
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22660
* fs
* Added a `recursive` option to `fs.mkdir` and `fs.mkdirSync`. If
this option is set to true, non-existing parent folders will be
automatically created. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/21875
* http2
* Added a `'ping'` event to `Http2Session` that is emitted whenever a
non-ack `PING` is received.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23009
* Added support for the `ORIGIN` frame.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22956
* Updated nghttp2 to 1.34.0. This adds RFC 8441 extended connect
protocol support to allow use of WebSockets over HTTP/2.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23284
* module
* Added `module.createRequireFromPath(filename)`. This new method can
be used to create a custom require function that will resolve
modules relative to the filename path.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19360
* process
* Added a `'multipleResolves'` process event that is emitted whenever
a `Promise` is attempted to be resolved multiple times, e.g. if the
`resolve` and `reject` functions are both called in a `Promise`
executor. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22218
* url
* Added `url.fileURLToPath(url)` and `url.pathToFileURL(path)`. These
methods can be used to correctly convert between file: URLs and
absolute paths. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22506
* util
* Added the `sorted` option to `util.inspect()`. If set to `true`,
all properties of an object and Set and Map entries will be sorted
in the returned string. If set to a function, it is used as a
compare function. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22788
* The `util.instpect.custom` symbol is now defined in the global
symbol registry as `Symbol.for('nodejs.util.inspect.custom')`.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20857
* Added support for `BigInt` numbers in `util.format()`.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22097
* V8 API
* A number of V8 C++ APIs have been marked as deprecated since they
have been removed in the upstream repository. Replacement APIs
are added where necessary. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/23159
* Windows
* The Windows msi installer now provides an option to automatically
install the tools required to build native modules.
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/22645
* Workers
* Debugging support for Workers using the DevTools protocol has been
implemented. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/21364
* The public `inspector` module is now enabled in Workers.

Notable changes:
An infrastructure issue caused a non-functioning msi installer for x64 to be promoted.
The patch release is to ensure that all binaries and installers work as expected.
Notable changes:
No additional commits.
Due to incorrect staging of the upgrade to the GCC 4.9.X compiler, the
latest releases for PPC little endian were built using GCC 4.9.X
instead of GCC 4.8.X. This caused an ABI breakage on PPCLE based
environments. This has been fixed in our infrastructure and we are
doing this release to ensure that the hosted binaries are adhering to
our platform support contract.
Note that Node.js versions 10.X and later will be built with version
4.9.X or later of the GCC compiler, and it is possible that Node.js
version 9.X may be built on the 4.9.X compiler at a later time as the
stated minimum compiler requirement for Node.js version 9.X is 4.9.4.

This is a security release. All Node.js users should consult the
security release summary at:
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/march-2018-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Fixes for the following CVEs are included in this release:
* CVE-2018-7158
* CVE-2018-7159
* CVE-2018-7160
Notable changes:
* Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.2o: Does not contain any security fixes that
are known to impact Node.js.
* **Fix for inspector DNS rebinding vulnerability (CVE-2018-7160)**:
A malicious website could use a DNS rebinding attack to trick a web
browser to bypass same-origin-policy checks and allow HTTP
connections to localhost or to hosts on the local network,
potentially to an open inspector port as a debugger, therefore
gaining full code execution access. The inspector now only allows
connections that have a browser `Host` value of `localhost` or
`localhost6`.
* **Fix for `'path'` module regular expression denial of service
(CVE-2018-7158)**: A regular expression used for parsing POSIX an
Windows paths could be used to cause a denial of service if an
attacker were able to have a specially crafted path string passed
through one of the impacted `'path'` module functions.
* **Reject spaces in HTTP `Content-Length` header values
(CVE-2018-7159)**: The Node.js HTTP parser allowed for spaces inside
`Content-Length` header values. Such values now lead to rejected
connections in the same way as non-numeric values.
* **Update root certificates**: 5 additional root certificates have
been added to the Node.js binary and 30 have been removed.
* cluster:
- Add support for `NODE_OPTIONS="--inspect"` (Sameer Srivastava)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19165
* crypto:
- Expose the public key of a certificate (Hannes Magnusson)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/17690
* n-api:
- Add `napi_fatal_exception` to trigger an `uncaughtException` in
JavaScript (Mathias Buus)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19337
* path:
- Fix regression in `posix.normalize` (Michaël Zasso)

* stream:
- Improve stream creation performance (Brian White)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19401

PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs-private/node-private/pull/110
Notable changes:
* events:
- `events.usingDomains` being set to false by default was removed in
9.6.0 which was a change in behavior compared to 9.5.0. This
behavior change has been reverted and the `events` object now has
`usingDomains` preset to `false`, which is the behavior in 9.x
prior to 9.6.0 (Myles Borins)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/18944
PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/18946
Since the method is inherited from `Writable`, usage of the method
does not change at all after its removal as an explicit method.
Calling it out as notable might therefore be more confusing than
helpful.

* **Domains**
* The long-deprecated `.dispose()` method has been removed.
* **fs**
* The `fs.ReadStream` and `fs.WriteStream` classes now use `destroy()`.
* `fs` module callbacks are now invoked with an undefined context.
* **HTTP/1**
* A 400 Bad Request response will now be sent when parsing fails.
* Socket timeout will be set when the socket connects.
* A bug causing the request `'error'` event to fire twice was fixed.
* HTTP clients may now use generic `Duplex` streams in addition to `net.Socket`.
* **Intl**
* The deprecated `Intl.v8BreakIterator` has been removed.
* **Modules**
* The `require.resolve()` method now supports using custom lookup paths.
* **OS**
* The `os.EOL` property is now read-only.
* **Timers**
* `setTimeout()` will emit a warning if the timeout is larger that the maximum
32-bit unsigned integer.
Should not be nested under the bullet point. Headings need to be at the
root level.

on the 6.10.x release line.
This includes:
* a fix for memory leak in the crypto module that
was introduced in 6.10.1
* a fix for a regression introduced to the windows repl in 6.10.0
* a backported fix for V8 to stop a segfault that could occur
when using spread syntax
It also includes an upgrade to zlib 1.2.11 to fix a numberof low
