This minor version upgrade contains subtle changes that could be breaking for some applications. The default depth for parsing URL-encoded bodies has been reduced, and there is a known change in query string parsing behavior in version 4.22.0.

Highlights:

• express.urlencoded() Change: In version 4.20.0, the default depth for the URL-encoded middleware was changed from Infinity to 32. Applications processing deeply nested objects in form data may be affected.
• Query Parsing: Version 4.22.0 introduced a change to the query parser (qs library) that was later reverted in 4.22.1 due to being an "erroneous breaking change". This change is present in the target version.

Source: Express documentation
Recommendation: Test applications that handle deeply nested form data or complex query strings before merging.
