Another option is to track Node.js's "fork" of V8. We maintain our copy in deps/v8 for as long as the corresponding node release branch is maintained. E.g. the v20 branch gets support until April 2026. Caveat emptor w.r.t. security fixes: node's threat model differs from chromium in that executed code = trusted code. Local exploits are not prio-drop-everything like they are for chromium. -- -- v8-dev mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-dev --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-dev" group.
