|  | 4 | + | 
|  | 5 | +### Notable changes | 
|  | 6 | + | 
|  | 7 | +* **buffer**: Fixed a bug introduced in v4.1.0 where allocating a new zero-length buffer can result in the _next_ allocation of a TypedArray in JavaScript not being zero-filled. In certain circumstances this could result in data leakage via reuse of memory space in TypedArrays, breaking the normally safe assumption that TypedArrays should be always zero-filled. (Trevor Norris) [#2931](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2931). | 
|  | 8 | +* **http**: Guard against response-splitting of HTTP trailing headers added via [`response.addTrailers()`](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_response_addtrailers_headers) by removing new-line (`[\r\n]`) characters from values. Note that standard header values are already stripped of new-line characters. The expected security impact is low because trailing headers are rarely used. (Ben Noordhuis) [#2945](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2945). | 
|  | 9 | +* **npm**: Upgrade to npm 2.14.4 from 2.14.3, see [release notes](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v2.14.4) for full details (Kat Marchán) [#2958](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2958) | 
|  | 10 | +  - Upgrades `graceful-fs` on multiple dependencies to no longer rely on monkey-patching `fs` | 
|  | 11 | +  - Fix `npm link` for pre-release / RC builds of Node | 
|  | 12 | +* **v8**: Update post-mortem metadata to allow post-mortem debugging tools to find and inspect: | 
|  | 13 | +  - JavaScript objects that use dictionary properties (Julien Gilli) [#2959](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2959) | 
|  | 14 | +  - ScopeInfo and thus closures (Julien Gilli) [#2974](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2974) | 
|  | 15 | + | 
|  | 16 | +### Known issues | 
|  | 17 | + | 
|  | 18 | +See https://github.com/nodejs/node/labels/confirmed-bug for complete and current list of known issues. | 
|  | 19 | + | 
|  | 20 | +* Some problems with unreferenced timers running during `beforeExit` are still to be resolved. See [#1264](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/1264). | 
|  | 21 | +* Surrogate pair in REPL can freeze terminal. [#690](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/690) | 
|  | 22 | +* Calling `dns.setServers()` while a DNS query is in progress can cause the process to crash on a failed assertion. [#894](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/894) | 
|  | 23 | +* `url.resolve` may transfer the auth portion of the url when resolving between two full hosts, see [#1435](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/1435). |
