+This release focuses on security hardening and operational reliability. Core updates
+introduce a regex length limit to reduce resource-exhaustion risk. Plugin updates
+improve error consolidation (`show_first`), reduce misleading SOA warnings, add
+Kubernetes API rate limiting, enhance metrics with plugin chain tracking, and fix
+issues in azure and sign. This release also includes additional security fixes;
+see the security advisory for details.
