This minor update includes security patches and stricter API validation. While it should be backward-compatible for most applications, it hardens behavior that could affect edge cases.

Highlights:

• Query Parsing: To fix a vulnerability (CVE-2024-51999), req.query is now a plain object and no longer inherits from Object.prototype. Code relying on inherited methods like req.query.hasOwnProperty() may break. [4, 6]
• API Usage: Route handler methods such as app.get() or app.post() will now correctly throw an error if called without a path argument. [1]

Source: Package documentation
Recommendation: Merge after validating that application code does not rely on Object prototype methods on req.query.
