v4.3.0 - September 24th, 2019
Fixes:
- Security: Disallow calling "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" directly - 2078c72
- Disallow calling "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" directly - 2078c72
Features:
- Add new runtime option
allowCallsToHelperMissing
to allow callingblockHelperMissing
andhelperMissing
.
Breaking changes:
Compatibility notes:
-
Compiler revision increased - 06b7224
- This means that template compiled with versions prior to 4.3.0 will not work with runtimes >= 4.3.0 The increase was done because the "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" are now moved from the helpers to the internal "container.hooks" object, so old templates will not be able to call them anymore. We suggest that you always recompile your templates with the latest compiler in your build pipelines.
-
Disallow calling "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" directly - 2078c72
- Calling "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" directly from a template (like in
{{blockHelperMissing}}
was never intended and was part of the exploits that have been revealed early in 2019 (see https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/issues/1495). It is also part of a new exploit that is not captured by the earlier fix. In order to harden Handlebars against such exploits, calling thos helpers is now not possible anymore. Overriding those helpers is still possible. - If you really need this behavior, you can set the runtime option
allowCallsToHelperMissing
totrue
and the calls will again be possible
- Calling "helperMissing" and "blockHelperMissing" directly from a template (like in
Both bullet points imly that Handlebars is not 100% percent compatible to 4.2.0, despite the minor version bump.
We consider it more important to resolve a major security issue than to maintain 100% compatibility.
v4.2.1 - September 20th, 2019
Bugfixes:
- The "browser" property in the package.json has been updated to use the common-js builds instead of the minified UMD - c55a7be, #1553
Compatibility notes:
- No compatibility issues should arise
v4.2.0 - September 3rd, 2019
Chore/Test:
- Use custom
grunt-saucelab
with current sauce-connect proxy - f119497 - Add framework for various integration tests - f9cce4d
- Add integration test for webpack - a57b682
Bugfixes:
- #1544 - Typescript types:
knownHelpers
doesnt allow for custom helpers (@NickCis) - #1534 - Add typings for "Handlebars.VM.resolvePartial (@AndrewLeedham)
Features:
Compatibility notes:
- The new "browser"-property should not break anything, but you can never be sure. The integration test for webpack shows that it works, but if it doesn't please open an issue.
v4.1.2-0 - August 25th, 2019
#1540 - added browser to package.json, resolves #1102 (@ouijan)
Compatibility notes:
- We are not sure if imports via webpack are still working, which is why this release is a pre-release
v4.1.2 - April 13th, 2019
Chore/Test:
- #1515 - Port over linting and test for typings (@zimmi88)
- chore: add missing typescript dependency, add package-lock.json - 594f1e3
- test: remove safari from saucelabs - 871accc
Bugfixes:
- fix: prevent RCE through the "lookup"-helper - cd38583
Compatibility notes:
Access to the constructor of a class thought {{lookup obj "constructor" }}
is now prohibited. This closes
a leak that only half closed in versions 4.0.13 and 4.1.0, but it is a slight incompatibility.
This kind of access is not the intended use of Handlebars and leads to the vulnerability described in #1495. We will not increase the major version, because such use is not intended or documented, and because of the potential impact of the issue (we fear that most people won't use a new major version and the issue may not be resolved on many systems).
v4.1.1 - March 16th, 2019
Bugfixes:
- fix: add "runtime.d.ts" to allow "require('handlebars/runtime')" in TypeScript - 5cedd62
Refactorings:
- replace "async" with "neo-async" - 048f2ce
- use "substring"-function instead of "substr" - 445ae12
Compatibility notes:
- This is a bugfix release. There are no breaking change and no new features.
v4.1.0 - February 7th, 2019
New Features
- import TypeScript typings - 27ac1ee
Security fixes:
- disallow access to the constructor in templates to prevent RCE - 42841c4, #1495
Housekeeping
- chore: fix components/handlebars package.json and auto-update on release - bacd473
- chore: Use node 10 to build handlebars - 78dd89c
- chore/doc: Add more release docs - 6b87c21
Compatibility notes:
Access to class constructors (i.e. ({}).constructor
) is now prohibited to prevent
Remote Code Execution. This means that following construct will no work anymore:
class SomeClass {
}
SomeClass.staticProperty = 'static'
var template = Handlebars.compile('{{constructor.staticProperty}}');
document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = template(new SomeClass());
// expected: 'static', but now this is empty.
This kind of access is not the intended use of Handlebars and leads to the vulnerability described in #1495. We will not increase the major version, because such use is not intended or documented, and because of the potential impact of the issue (we fear that most people won't use a new major version and the issue may not be resolved on many systems).

Compatibility notes:
- Depthed paths are now conditionally pushed on to the stack. If the helper uses the same context, then a new stack is not created. This leads to behavior that better matches expectations for helpers like
if
that do not seem to alter the context. Any instances of../
in templates will need to be checked for the correct behavior under 4.0.0. In general templates will either reduce the number of../
instances or leave them as is. See #1028. - The
=
character is now HTML escaped. This closes a potential exploit case when using unquoted attributes, i.e.<div foo={{bar}}>
. In general it's recommended that attributes always be quoted when their values are generated from a mustache to avoid any potential exploit surfaces. - AST constructors have been dropped in favor of plain old javascript objects
- The runtime version has been increased. Precompiled templates will need to use runtime of at least 4.0.0.

programWithDepth
has been removed an instead an array of context values is passed to fields needing depth lookups.
false
values are now printed to output rather than silently dropped- Lines containing only block statements and whitespace are now removed. This matches the Mustache spec but may cause issues with code that expects whitespace to exist but would not otherwise.
- Partials that are standalone will now indent their rendered content
AST.ProgramNode
's signature has changed.- Numerious methods/features removed from pseudo-API classes
JavaScriptCompiler.register
JavaScriptCompiler.replaceStack
no longer supports non-inline replaceCompiler.disassemble

#587 - Partial inside partial breaks?
Compatibility notes:
- The project now includes separate artifacts for AMD, CommonJS, and global objects.
- AMD: Users may load the bundled
handlebars.amd.js
orhandlebars.runtime.amd.js
files or load individual modules directly. AMD users should also note that the handlebars object is exposed via thedefault
field on the imported object. This gist provides some discussion of possible compatibility shims. - CommonJS/Node: Node loading occurs as normal via
require
- Globals: The
handlebars.js
andhandlebars.runtime.js
files should behave in the same manner as the v1.0.12 / 1.0.0 release.
- AMD: Users may load the bundled
- Build artifacts have been removed from the repository. npm, components/handlebars.js, cdnjs, or the builds page should now be used as the source of built artifacts.
- Context-stored helpers are now always passed the
options
hash. Previously no-argument helpers did not have this argument.
v1.0.12 / 1.0.0 - May 31 2013
- #515 - Add node require extensions support (@jjclark1982)
- #517 - Fix amd precompiler output with directories (@blessenm)
- #433 - Add support for unicode ids
- #469 - Add support for
?
in ids - #534 - Protect from object prototype modifications
- #519 - Fix partials with . name (@jamesgorrie)
- #519 - Allow ID or strings in partial names
- #437 - Require matching brace counts in escaped expressions
- Merge passed partials and helpers with global namespace values
- Add support for complex ids in @data references
- Docs updates
Compatibility notes:
- The parser is now stricter on
{{{
, requiring that the end token be}}}
. Templates that do not follow this convention should add the additional brace value. - Code that relies on global the namespace being muted when custom helpers or partials are passed will need to explicitly pass an
undefined
value for any helpers that should not be available. - The compiler version has changed. Precompiled templates with 1.0.12 or higher must use the 1.0.0 or higher runtime.

Prior Versions
When upgrading from the Handlebars 0.9 series, be aware that the signature for passing custom helpers or partials to templates has changed.
Instead of:
template(context, helpers, partials, [data])
Use:
template(context, {helpers: helpers, partials: partials, data: data})
