Hi ES-lovers, I have co-authored a JSON canonicalization scheme, recently published as an RFC: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8785.html
The work started with ES V6 as foundation since it made things really easy. Serialization of quoted strings where taken "as is" from: https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/index.html#sec-quotejsonstring However, to my dismay it seems that this has changed in more recent ES editions: https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/10.0/index.html#sec-quotejsonstring That is, in V6 a smiley was serialized as any other UTF code point. In V10 a smiley is (AFAICT...) supposed to be serialized like \ud83d\ude00 which of course breaks canonicalization :( Q: What was the motivation for this change? Q: How come Chrome, Edge, and Firefox do not honor this update? Verification: https://cyberphone.github.io/doc/security/browser-json-canonicalization.html Q: Does any other JSON serializer actually do this kind of transformation? thanx, Anders _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
