Node.js v25.2.1 has been released, reverting a spec-compliant behavior change that threw errors on localStorage access. The team determined this breaking change was too disruptive for a semver-minor release and postponed it to version 26.0.0. The release includes fixes for RSA-PSS saltLength defaults in crypto, a V8 backport, and clarifications on the experimental status of Web Storage support.
