🔒 New Kitten & JSDB Releases

Security fix, JSDB 6.0.1.

This is a critical update.

• JSDB¹ versions 6.0.0 and below suffer from potential data corruption/arbitrary code execution as string keys were not being sanitised in the same way string values were² (so this is relevant to you if you’re storing untrusted data as keys in your data structures in JSDB and/or Kitten databases without carrying out any of your own sanitisation at the application level).

• The latest Kitten release uses JSDB version 6.0.1. Your deployment servers will automatically update in the next few hours. On your development machines, please run `kitten update` in your terminal or use the Update feature in Kitten Settings from your browser.

• If you are using Kitten’s Database App Modules³ feature in your apps, you will have installed JSDB manually and you should update your installation to version 6.0.1.
