###### Important changes
- **The minimum supported versions of Deno, Node, and Bun have been raised.**
 The minimum required version of [Deno](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/16767) is now `v2.3.0`; supported [Node](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/16765) versions are `v22` and up; [Bun support has been deprecated](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/16766) and limited to versions `1.2.11` through `1.3.14`.
- Security
    - Usage of vulnerable conversions (e.g. `%()s`) with the `--exec` option is an all-too-common pitfall. To remedy this, `--exec` now only allows safe conversions in its command templates.
        - Most users can simply replace `%(...)s` with `%(...)q` in their `--exec` argument(s). Numeric conversions are unaffected by this change. Using unsafe conversions with `--exec` poses a significant security risk. [Read more](<https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/security/advisories/GHSA-69qj-pvh9-c5wg>)
    - [[CVE-2026-50019](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-50019)] [File Downloader cookie leak with curl](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/security/advisories/GHSA-f7j3-774f-rfhj)
        - Impact is limited to users of `--downloader curl`; cookies are now properly passed to curl so that it respects their scope
    - [[CVE-2026-50023](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-50023)] [Dangerous file type creation via insufficient filename sanitization](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/security/advisories/GHSA-c6mh-fpjc-4pr3)
        - Writing files with the extensions `.desktop`, `.url`, or `.webloc` is now only allowed in the context of `--write-link` functionality
    - [[CVE-2026-50574](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-50574)] [Arbitrary code execution via manifest downloads with aria2c](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/security/advisories/GHSA-vx4q-3cr2-7cg2)
        - Impact is limited to users of `--downloader aria2c`
        - Support for downloading HLS and DASH formats with aria2c has been removed. Users affected by this change should migrate to use `-N` for concurrent fragment downloads via the native downloader
