[0.7.0] - 2023-11-27

Changed

• Set req.authInfo by default when using the assignProperty option to authenticate() middleware. This makes the behavior the same as when not using the option, and can be disabled by setting authInfo option to false.

[0.6.0] - 2022-05-20

Added

• authenticate(), req#login, and req#logout accept a keepSessionInfo: true option to keep session information after regenerating the session.

Changed

• req#login() and req#logout() regenerate the the session and clear session information by default.
• req#logout() is now an asynchronous function and requires a callback function as the last argument.

Security

• Improved robustness against session fixation attacks in cases where there is physical access to the same system or the application is susceptible to cross-site scripting (XSS).

[0.5.3] - 2022-05-16

Fixed

• initialize() middleware extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions again, reverting change from 0.5.1.

[0.5.2] - 2021-12-16

Fixed

• Introduced a compatibility layer for strategies that depend directly on passport@0.4.x or earlier (such as passport-azure-ad), which were broken by the removal of private variables in passport@0.5.1.

[0.5.1] - 2021-12-15

Added

• Informative error message in session strategy if session support is not available.

Changed

• authenticate() middleware, rather than initialize() middleware, extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions.

[0.5.0] - 2021-09-23

Changed

• initialize() middleware extends request with login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions.

Removed

• login(), logIn(), logout(), logOut(), isAuthenticated(), and isUnauthenticated() functions no longer added to http.IncomingMessage.prototype.

Fixed

• userProperty option to initialize() middleware only affects the current request, rather than all requests processed via singleton Passport instance, eliminating a race condition in situations where initialize() middleware is used multiple times in an application with userProperty set to different values.
