Summary

This PR addresses multiple dependency issues in the AWS Encryption SDK for JavaScript.

Changes

  1. npm audit fix — Patched brace-expansion (lockfile only)
  2. Remove aws-sdk v2 — Removed aws-sdk v2 from root devDependencies and removed duplicate v2 test blocks from 6 test files in kms-keyring-browser and kms-keyring-node. The v2 blocks were structurally identical to the v3 blocks, so no test coverage is lost. (482 lines deleted)
  3. Replace deprecated browser utils:
    • @aws-sdk/util-utf8-browser@smithy/util-utf8 (5 modules, drop-in replacement)
    • @aws-sdk/util-base64-browser@aws-sdk/util-base64 (3 modules, drop-in replacement)
    • Unpinned @aws-sdk/util-locate-window from 3.310.0 to ^3.568.0
  4. Bump tslib2.6.32.8.1 (semver-compatible, lockfile-only change)
  5. Fix TypeScript build — Added @types/uuid to material-management and serialize modules to resolve TS7016 errors (uuid v10 does not bundle types)
  6. Revert end-of-stream unpin — Originally unpinned end-of-stream from <=1.4.4 to ^1.4.4, but 1.4.5 references process which breaks in the browser. Reverted to keep the <=1.4.4 pin.
  7. Fix ArrayBuffer → Uint8Array in encrypt integration test@smithy/util-utf8 toUtf8 requires string | Uint8Array, unlike the old @aws-sdk/util-utf8-browser which accepted ArrayBuffer via TextDecoder. Wrapped response.arrayBuffer() result in new Uint8Array().

Testing

  • TypeScript build compiles cleanly (tsc -b tsconfig.json — zero errors)
  • verdaccio-browser-decrypt passes locally (9086/9087 tests, 1 pre-existing flaky failure)
  • All import replacements are API-compatible drop-in swaps

Remove aws-sdk v2 from devDependencies and remove duplicate v2 test
blocks from kms-keyring-browser and kms-keyring-node tests. The v3
test blocks provide identical coverage.
- Replace @aws-sdk/util-utf8-browser with @smithy/util-utf8
- Replace @aws-sdk/util-base64-browser with @aws-sdk/util-base64
- Unpin @aws-sdk/util-locate-window from 3.310.0 to ^3.568.0
- Unpin end-of-stream from <=1.4.4 to ^1.4.4
Resolves TS7016 errors for uuid imports that lacked type declarations.

end-of-stream 1.4.5 references `process` which is not available in
the browser, causing 'ReferenceError: process is not defined' in
test-vectors-browser CI. The <=1.4.4 pin was intentional.

Is the error message below part of flaky test failure?

Error: Error message should be in notSupportedMessages but was @smithy/util-utf8: toUtf8 encoder function only accepts string | Uint8Array.

Based on the change, it looks related. Can you please confirm?

… test

@smithy/util-utf8 toUtf8 requires string | Uint8Array, unlike the old
@aws-sdk/util-utf8-browser which accepted ArrayBuffer via TextDecoder.
response.arrayBuffer() returns ArrayBuffer, so wrap it.
