bson 6.5.0

v6.5.0

on Node.js NPM

6.5.0 (2024-03-12)

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 6.5.0 of the bson package!

Release Notes

Fixed float byte-wise handling on big-endian systems

A recent change to the BSON library started parsing and serializing floats using a Float64Array. When reading the bytes from this array the ordering is dependent on the platform it is running on and we now properly account for that ordering.

Add SUBTYPE_SENSITIVE on Binary class

When a BSON.Binary object is of 'sensitive' subtype, the object's subtype will equal 0x08.
