🦉 Arbitrary Code Injection

[cdobru]

The upgrade from TypeORM v0.2.x to v0.3.x is a major version jump with significant breaking changes that require substantial code refactoring. The changes span from API renaming and deprecations to configuration and environment updates.

Key Breaking Changes:

• DataSource Replaces Connection: The primary way to configure and establish a database connection has changed. createConnection() is deprecated in favor of instantiating a new DataSource object.
• Repository and Find Method Changes: getRepository() is deprecated. You should now use dataSource.getRepository(). The findOne(id) and findOne() (with no arguments) method signatures have been removed. You must now use findOne({ where: { id } }).
• Configuration Files: Support for ormconfig.json is deprecated. Configuration should be managed through a DataSource instance, often exported from a data-source.ts file.
• Node.js Requirement: The compilation target was updated, requiring Node.js v14 or higher.
• CLI and Migrations: The CLI commands for migrations have been simplified but require pointing to the new DataSource file using a -d flag.

Source: TypeORM CHANGELOG, Migration discussions

Recommendation: This is a high-effort migration. Developers must update connection logic to use DataSource, refactor all repository access and find method calls, and update their CLI scripts for migrations. Due to the extensive nature of these changes, this upgrade should be handled in a separate, dedicated effort before merging.
