+## [2.5.0] - 2025-12-03
+
+### 🛡️ **Enterprise Code Review & Security Hardening**
+
+**Major security and code quality release** completing a comprehensive 20-task enterprise code review with security hardening, performance optimization, and test improvements.
+
+#### **🔐 Security Enhancements:**
+
+##### **Input Validation & Sanitization**
+- **Path traversal protection** - Blocked `../`, `..\\`, absolute paths, and null bytes in file operations
+- **CLI input sanitization** - Comprehensive validation for all command-line arguments
+- **Size limits enforcement** - Maximum file size (100MB) and content length limits
+- **Allowed extensions whitelist** - Only `.json`, `.tonl`, `.txt` files permitted
+
+##### **Parser Security**
+- **Recursion depth limiting** - Maximum 100 levels to prevent stack overflow attacks
+- **Block line limits** - Maximum 10,000 lines per block to prevent memory exhaustion
+- **Input size validation** - Early rejection of oversized inputs
+- **Regex timeout protection** - ReDoS-resistant pattern matching
+
+##### **Rate Limiting & DoS Prevention**
+- **Token bucket rate limiter** - Configurable requests per window
+- **Sliding window tracking** - Accurate rate limiting across time boundaries
+- **Query complexity limits** - Maximum operations per query to prevent abuse
+
+#### **🧪 Testing Excellence:**
+- **584 comprehensive tests** - All passing with 100% success rate
+- **96 security-focused tests** - Covering all attack vectors
+- **Test isolation fixes** - Unique temp file names prevent parallel test conflicts
+- **Cross-platform compatibility** - Windows and Unix temp directory handling
+
+#### **📦 New Modules:**
+
+##### **Optimization Module** (`src/optimization/`)
+- **DictionaryBuilder** - String deduplication with reference encoding
+- **ColumnReorderer** - Optimal column ordering for compression
+- **NumericQuantizer** - Precision-aware numeric compression
+- **DeltaEncoder** - Sequential value delta encoding
+- **RunLengthEncoder** - RLE for repetitive data
+- **BitPacker** - Bit-level integer packing
+- **AdaptiveOptimizer** - Automatic strategy selection
+- **SchemaInheritance** - Hierarchical schema compression
+
+##### **Security Module** (`src/security/`)
+- **InputValidator** - Comprehensive input validation
+- **PathSanitizer** - Path traversal protection
+- **RateLimiter** - Token bucket rate limiting
+- **SecurityContext** - Centralized security state
+
+#### **🔧 Code Quality:**
+- **Centralized error handling** - Consistent error types and messages
+- **Type safety improvements** - Stricter TypeScript configurations
+- **Documentation updates** - JSDoc comments for all public APIs
+- **Performance benchmarks** - Baseline metrics for optimization tracking
+
+#### **📋 Task Completion:**
+- **19/20 tasks completed** (95% completion rate)
+- **Task 006 deferred** - Block parser refactoring postponed for dedicated sprint
+- **Zero regressions** - All existing functionality preserved
