v1.18.1

Compare Source

v1.18.1 — June 21, 2026

This release focuses on Node HTTP adapter fixes, safer AxiosError serialisation, runtime/type correctness fixes, documentation updates, and dependency maintenance.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• AxiosError Serialisation: Made AxiosError#cause non-enumerable to prevent circular JSON serialisation failures when errors include nested causes. (#​10913)
• Node HTTP Adapter: Guarded socket.setKeepAlive for proxy agent streams, accepted path-only URLs when socketPath is configured, deferred environment proxy handling to Node, and explicitly passed maxBodyLength through to follow-redirects. (#​10917, #​10930, #​10942, #​10993)
• Runtime and Type Correctness: Fixed several runtime crashes, type definition mismatches, and incorrect error handling paths. (#​10959, #​11021)
• AxiosURLSearchParams: Switched the encoder callback to an arrow function so encoder.call(this) receives the AxiosURLSearchParams instance correctly. (#​11019)

🔧 Maintenance & Chores

• Documentation: Documented sensitive headers and status transition behaviour, prepared cleaned-up docs, added Deno install instructions, and clarified that request data is request-specific (#​11007, #​11010, #​11023, #​11025)

• Dependencies: Bumped vite, rollup, form-data, js-yaml, and multer across the root project, docs, smoke tests, and module test workspaces. (#​11011, #​11012, #​11013, #​11014, #​11015, #​11016, #​11017, #​11026)
