Servo 0.3.0 contains all of the changes we landed in May, which came out to 391 commits (March: 534). For security fixes, see § Security.

We've shipped several new web platform features:

• 'font-kerning: none' (@simonwuelker, #44634)
• 'font-variant-east-asian' (@simonwuelker, #44989)
• 'font-variant-ligatures' (@simonwuelker, #44903)
• 'font-variant-numeric' (@simonwuelker, #44950)
• 'font-variant-position' (@simonwuelker, #45142)
• mp4 files without fast start in <video> (@calvaris, #45084)
• <form enctype="multipart/form-data"> (@yezhizhen, #45028)
• <form enctype="text/plain"> (@yezhizhen, #45111)
• <![CDATA[]]> layout (@mrobinson, #44791)

Plus a bunch of new DOM APIs:

• onslotchange property on Shadow­Root (@jdm, #44688)
• screen­Left and screen­Top on Window (@TG199, #45128)
• new Blob() with {endings: "native"} (@yezhizhen, #44803)
• new Performance­Mark() (@shubhamg13, #44702)
• parse­HTML() on Document (@kkoyung, #44952)
• read­As­Binary­String() on File­Reader (@yezhizhen, #44858, #44921)
• performance.measure() with mark values 'redirect­Start', 'redirect­End', 'secure­Connection­Start', and 'response­End' (@shubhamg13, #44673, #44624, #44850, #44739)

We've also fixed some build issues on Windows (@mukilan, #45079), FreeBSD (@delan, @mrobinson, @mukilan, #44600), and for anyone building Servo on NixOS or with Nix (@freyacodes, #45051, #45135).

This is another big update, so here's an outline:

• Security
  - memory safety fixes

• Work in progress
  - execCommand(), Sanitizer, IndexedDB, accessibility, workers

• Embedding API
  - MSRV, cookies, preferences, diagnostics

• For users and developers
  - --host-file, --userscripts, DevTools Debugger

• More on the web platform
  - focus, forms, navigation, SubtleCrypto, WebGPU

• Performance
  - about:memory, threads, layout, DOM, build times

• Stability
  - crashes, hangs, static analysis

Security

Servo's JS runtime, SpiderMonkey 140.10.0, had several memory safety bugs that have been fixed in Servo 0.3.0 with the update to SpiderMonkey 140.10.1 (@jschwe, #44755). For more details, see CVE-2026-7322, CVE-2026-7323, and MFSA 2026-36.

Work in progress

We're continuing to implement document.exec­Command() for rich text editing, under --pref dom­_exec­_command­_enabled (@TimvdLippe, #44735, #44973, #44887). This release adds support for the 'back­Color', 'fore­Color', 'create­Link', 'unlink', 'superscript', 'subscript', and 'remove­Format' commands (@TimvdLippe, #44644, #44682, #44657, #44710, #44677), plus partial support for the 'insert­Paragraph' command (@TimvdLippe, #44909).

We're also working on the Sanitizer API, under --pref dom­_sanitizer­_enabled. With the feature now enabled in servoshell's experimental mode (@kkoyung, #44701), this release adds support for set­Comments(), set­Data­Attributes(), allow­Processing­Instruction(), remove­Processing­Instruction(), and remove­Unsafe() on Sanitizer (@kkoyung, #44734, #44983).

IndexedDB continues to improve, under --pref dom­_indexeddb­_enabled. This release brings a more conformant abort() on IDB­Transaction (@Taym95, #43950).

All of the features above are enabled in servoshell's experimental mode.

We've made more progress towards accessibility support, including the name from contents algorithm (@alice, @delan, @mrobinson, #44439) and several changes towards building the accessibility tree incrementally (@alice, @delan, @mrobinson, #44766, #45035, #45207, #44768, #44785, #44801, #44767, #45029). The latter is critical for performance in real-world web content.

We're now working on SharedWorker and ServiceWorker, under --pref dom­_sharedworker­_enabled and --pref dom­_serviceworker­_enabled respectively. This release adds support for new Shared­Worker() (@Taym95, #44761), and parts of the ServiceWorker API (@gterzian, @arihant2math, #45082, #44787).

Embedding API

Servo now requires Rust 1.88.0 or newer, up from the old MSRV of 1.86.0 (@sagudev, #44815). We run compile tests with the MSRV, but most of our testing is now done with Rust 1.95.0 (@simonwuelker, #44632).

Breaking changes to the cookies methods in our SiteDataManager API (@longvatrong111, #44708):

• Site­Data­Manager::clear­_cookies now takes an additional callback argument, allowing it to be called async - to continue calling it sync, pass None as the callback

• Site­Data­Manager::clear­_session­_cookies now takes an additional callback argument, allowing it to be called async - to continue calling it sync, pass None as the callback

• Site­Data­Manager::set­_cookie­_for­_url now takes an additional callback argument, allowing it to be called async - to continue calling it sync, pass None as the callback

• Site­Data­Manager::set­_cookie­_for­_url­_async has been removed in favour of set­_cookie­_for­_url - to migrate, replace set­_cookie­_for­_url­_async(​callback) with set­_cookie­_for­_url(​Some(​Box::new(​callback)))

Breaking changes to our Preferences API (@Narfinger, @mrobinson, #44307):

• threadpools­_image­_cache­_workers­_max, threadpools­_indexeddb­_workers­_max, and threadpools­_webstorage­_workers­_max have been removed in favour of a combined thread­_pool­_workers­_max

• threadpools­_fallback­_worker­_num has been renamed to thread­_pool­_fallback­_workers

• threadpools­_async­_runtime­_workers­_max has been renamed to thread­_pool­_async­_runtime­_workers­_max

• threadpools­_webrender­_workers­_max has been renamed to thread­_pool­_webrender­_workers­_max

We've also reworked our DiagnosticsLogging API (@mukilan, #44703):

• You can now set options with DiagnosticsLogging::toggle­_option, and check if they are enabled with DiagnosticsLogging::is­_enabled

• Each option is a variant of DiagnosticsLoggingOption, a new type that also has useful methods for exposing these options in embedder UI

• (Breaking change) DiagnosticsLogging no longer has pub fields representing each option - to migrate, replace field writes and field reads with toggle­_option and is­_enabled respectively

• (Breaking change) DiagnosticsLogging::extend­_from­_string no longer accepts a help option - this option only existed to support servoshell's -Z help / --debug=help option, so the code implementing it has been moved to servoshell

For users and developers

servoshell has two new options:

• You can now configure the path to a hosts file with --host-file= (singular), as an alternative to the HOST_FILE (singular) environment variable (@jschwe, #44880).

• You can now provide a directory of user scripts to run in every document with --userscripts= (@jdm, #44754).

When using the Debugger tab in the Firefox DevTools:

• You can now "blackbox" a script by clicking Ignore source (@freyacodes, #44359). This prevents breakpoints from being hit inside that script, and it should also allow you to step through execution in the debugger without pausing inside that script.

• The Scopes panel is more accurate now (@atbrakhi, @eerii, #44765).

For developers of Servo itself, please note that per project policy, you must not use the output of large language models or other generative AI tools in your contributions. To help us enforce that, we now have CI checks that reject AI agents as coauthors (@SimonSapin, @delan, #44723).

We've also fixed build issues with --features vello (@Gae24, @yezhizhen, #44875, #45036).

More on the web platform

We've improved the default appearance of <dl>, <ol>, <ul>, <table>, <thead>, <tbody>, <tfoot>, <tr>, <td>, <th>, <dir>, <menu>, and <form> (@avis137, #44837, #44920).

CryptoKey is now serializable, allowing it to be used in structuredClone() and postMessage() (@kkoyung, #45163).

We've improved JS error messages in several parts of the DOM (@n0blenote, @jdm, @TG199, @PuercoPop, #44704, #45186, #44656).

We've improved the conformance of form submission (@yezhizhen, #44943, #44953, #44954, #44957), tab navigation (@mrobinson, #44684), javascript: url navigation (@jdm, @TimvdLippe, #43490), 'Refresh' headers and <meta http-equiv=Refresh> (@jschwe, @mrobinson, #45113, #45116), 'line-break: anywhere' (@mrobinson, @SimonSapin, #44609), assign() on Location (@TG199, @jdm, #44298), crypto.subtle.derive­Bits() (@kkoyung, #44706), get­Computed­Style() (@Loirooriol, #44856), performance.measure() (@shubhamg13, #44675), read­As­Data­URL() on File­Reader (@yezhizhen, #44897, #44924), stream() on Blob (@Taym95, #45133), and ML-KEM in Subtle­Crypto (@kkoyung, #45153).

We've also landed improvements to GPU­Supported­Limits (@sagudev, #45114), GPU­Texture (@sagudev, #45154), create­Bind­Group() on GPU­Device (@sagudev, #45140), and other WebGPU features (@sagudev, #45097).

We've fixed bugs related to <svg> with 'Content-Security-Policy' (@TimvdLippe, @jdm, #44974), ':active' (@SharanRP, @mrobinson, #43953), ':hover' (@SharanRP, @mrobinson, #43979), 'align-items' (@yezhizhen, #44396), 'border-image-outset' (@lumiscosity, #45039), 'padding' with 'overflow: scroll' (@stevennovaryo, #44263), 'pointerup' events (@mrobinson, #44666), 'slotchange' events (@jdm, #44688), dynamic import() (@Gae24, #44741), and clip() on CanvasRenderingContext2D (@yezhizhen, #44831).

Performance

We've built a tool that will help us improve 'about:memory' by finding untracked allocations (@jdm, @TimvdLippe, @webbeef, #44674, #44980).

Servo now requires fewer OS threads per CPU, after we combined the thread pools for the image cache, web storage, and IndexedDB (@Narfinger, @mrobinson, #44307).

We've landed a bunch of layout optimisations:

• The fragment tree is now immutable for the most part, with small pockets of interior mutability where mutability is needed. This means that most fragment tree accesses no longer have to incur the runtime cost of borrowing an AtomicRefCell (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, #44849).

• Two steps in the layout process, calculating containing blocks and building the stacking context tree, require traversing the fragment tree. This can be expensive, but we've now combined them into a single fragment tree traversal in most cases (@SimonSapin, @mrobinson, #44911, #45210).

• Another step in the layout process, calculating scrollable overflow, used to require traversing the entire fragment tree. We've effectively eliminated that traversal, by making the calculation both lazy and incremental (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, #44854).

• We've improved the caching of fragments, shaping results, and other layout results between reflows (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, @SimonSapin, #45038, #44769).

• We've made incremental fragment layout more precise (@Loirooriol, @mrobinson, #44925).

• We've reduced the memory usage of text shaping (@mrobinson, @SimonSapin, #44609).

DOM attributes are much more efficient in this release:

• When scripts write attribute values, we avoid serialising them until the attribute is read back by a script (if ever), speeding up frequent writes to inline styles by up to 25% (@mrobinson, #44931).

• When we parse attributes in HTML or read attribute values internally, we avoid constructing Attr nodes until a script actually needs them, reducing memory usage and making garbage collection less likely (@webbeef, @TimvdLippe, @mrobinson, #44209, #45023, #45031, #45060).

We've eliminated a traversal of the whole DOM tree whenever an <iframe> is attached to the tree, which is especially noticeable when parsing documents with many <iframe> tags (@mrobinson, #45236).

Stylesheet locks now use AtomicRefCell, which is even more efficient than a parking_lot::RwLock (@mrobinson, #44883).

On OpenHarmony, we now have a real refresh driver for reduced idle CPU usage (@jschwe, @yezhizhen, #44927), and we now cache the font list on disk for faster startup (@RichardTjokroutomo, @d-desyatkin, #44158).

We've also reduced allocations, GC rooting steps, and other operations in many parts of Servo (@jschwe, @kkoyung, @mrobinson, @SteveSharonSam, @Narfinger, @jdm, @nodelpit, @simonwuelker, #44961, #44944, #44972, #45231, #45078, #44662, #44679, #44967, #44963, #44933, #44935, #44905).

To improve Servo's build times, we're moving more code out of our massive script crate (@Narfinger, @jdm, #44598, #44636, #44823), and reduced the size of our dependency tree (@jschwe, #44818).

Stability

Several crashes and hangs have been fixed:

• in 'content' (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, @SimonSapin, #45227, #44762)
• in Media­Stream (@jdm, #44781)
• in item() on attributes on Element (@webbeef, #44721)
• in append­Rule() on CSS­Keyframes­Rule (@mrobinson, #45173)
• in init­Event() on Focus­Event (@mrobinson, #44870)
• in stop() on Window (@TimvdLippe, #44804)
• in document.exec­Command(​"delete") (@TimvdLippe, #44748)
• in --debug-mozjs builds (@Gae24, @SharanRP, #44745, #45001)
• when evaluating scripts in DevTools while paused (@atbrakhi, #45050)
• when previewing some JS values in DevTools (@eerii, @atbrakhi, #45054)
• when shaping zero-width spaces in layout (@mrobinson, #45176)
• when toggling servoshell's experimental mode at runtime (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, #45226)

We've continued our long-running effort to use the Rust type system to make certain kinds of dynamic borrow failures impossible (@Gae24, @MavenRain, @Narfinger, @SteveSharonSam, @TimvdLippe, @elomscansio, @jdm, @kkoyung, @yezhizhen, #44712, #44759, #44879, #45014, #45058, #45061, #45076, #45098, #45110, #45149, #45117, #45184, #45201, #44806, #44930, #44942, #44946, #45233, #45181, #44659, #44660, #44664, #44668, #44992, #45000, #45081, #45009, #45225, #45087, #45244, #45245, #45247, #44663, #44665, #44993, #45040, #45053, #44647, #44671, #44681, #44717, #44733, #44686, #44653).
