Summary of Changes

This pull request (PR) updates the composer dependency "joomla/filter" from version 4.0.2 to version 4.1.0.

In addition, it changes the version requirement in the composer.json file for that dependency from a pinned fix version 4.0.2 to a caret version range ^4.1.0 to allow future updates of that dependency to new 4.x versions.

The fix version pin was introduced after the last 6.1.1 security release by mistake with this commit: 12bcb39

Note to Release Managers

@drmenzelit @MacJoom If you plan to do a general composer update anyway before Tuesday, this PR here would be partly obsolete. But you have to make the change in the composer.json file from this PR to get rid of the fixed version pin so you will get the update of the "joomla/filter" dependency.

Testing Instructions

Code review.

Verify that the update from version 4.0.2 to version 4.1.0 is a direct update from one to the next version, i.e. the are no other 4.0.x versions in between.

Check the release page https://github.com/joomla-framework/filter/releases/tag/4.1.0 and verify that the only change is the new public method from PR joomla-framework/filter#88 (and the new unit test for that which is not shipped into the CMS).

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

Composer dependency "joomla/filter" is hard pinned to version 4.0.2.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

Composer dependency "joomla/filter" is updated to version 4.1.0.
