glasp v0.3.0 & v0.4.0 — PKCE Support, Timeouts, and Retries
Glasp, a browser extension for highlighting and note-taking, has released versions 0.3.0 and 0.4.0. The updates introduce PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange) support, which enhances the security of OAuth authorization flows by preventing authorization code interception attacks. Additionally, the new versions add configurable timeouts for HTTP requests, allowing users to set limits on how long the extension waits for a response before timing out. Automatic retries for failed operations are also included, which can help recover from transient network errors without manual intervention. These features are designed to improve the reliability and security of Glasp when interacting with external APIs and services. The release notes were published on DEV Community by the developer, highlighting these incremental improvements.
PKCE support and retries improve Glasp's security and reliability for developers using it in workflows.
