Livewire v4.2.0 adds Laravel 13 support, reactive props during boot hooks, a new $errors.clear() method, and seven security hardening improvements.

Laravel News

Livewire v4.2.0 has been released with Laravel 13 compatibility and seven targeted security hardening improvements. Security changes include lifecycle method protection against frontend invocation, timing-safe checksum comparison using hash_equals(), payload schema validation, stricter X-Livewire header and JSON content type requirements, and web middleware enforcement on custom update routes. New developer features include reactive props during boot hooks and a $errors.clear() method on the JavaScript errors object. Bug fixes address an EventBus listener memory leak under Octane, silent failures for non-UTF-8 property data, broken route model binding with cached middleware, and wire:model failures with string array keys. No breaking changes are expected for typical applications.
