Patch Release v0.9.2 📎

[Tomasz Naumowicz (tnaum-ms)]

Patch Release v0.9.2

This patch makes Query Insights and Kubernetes service discovery more resilient, improves the accuracy of performance metrics, and fixes a Service Discovery activation crash.

What's Changed in v0.9.2

💠 More Reliable Query Insights (#335, #762, #763, #833)

Query Insights explain operations now stop after 30 seconds instead of potentially waiting indefinitely on complex queries. Very low non-zero selectivity values are also shown as below 0.1% rather than the misleading 0%, with locale-aware number formatting.

💠 Kubernetes Discovery Reliability (#735, #741, #742, #803, #835)

Kubernetes discovery no longer waits indefinitely when an API server or namespace is unreachable. Requests stop after 30 seconds and failures appear as retryable error nodes, while discovery continues for other namespaces. Interactive Shell also prepares ClusterIP port forwarding before launch, and discovered connections no longer assume the replica set is named rs0.

💠 Service Discovery Activation Fix (#830)

Fixed an isNullOrUndefined is not a function error that could appear when activating Service Discovery or performing other actions that emit telemetry. The extension now bundles a consistent set of Application Insights dependencies.

💠 Security and Dependency Updates

This release includes targeted dependency updates for archive extraction, request parsing, URI validation, link parsing, collection handling, development tooling, and CI supply-chain security:

• Archive and WebSocket handling: @xhmikosr/decompress 11.1.2 → 11.1.3 and websocket-driver 0.7.4 → 0.7.5. #788, #797
• Request and link parsing: body-parser 2.2.2 → 2.3.0 and 1.20.5 → 1.20.6, shell-quote 1.8.4 → 1.10.0, and linkify-it 5.0.0 → 5.0.2. #805, #806, #807
• URI and collection handling: fast-uri 3.1.2 → 3.1.4 in the extension and API package, and immutable 5.1.5 → 5.1.9. #808, #809, #812
• Development server: webpack-dev-server 5.2.5 → 5.2.6. #810
• GitHub Actions hardening: Third-party Actions are pinned to full commit SHAs with a seven-day Dependabot cooldown. The workflow toolchain updates actions/checkout 6.0.3 → 7.0.1, actions/setup-node 5.0.0 → 7.0.0, actions/cache 5.1.0 → 6.1.0, JS-DevTools/npm-publish 1.4.3 → 4.1.5, peter-evans/create-pull-request 4.2.4 → 8.1.1, actions/github-script 8.0.0 → 9.0.0, and actions/upload-artifact 6.0.0 → 7.0.1. #791, #792, #801, #821
