The FSINCOS feature, recognized for its performance challenges, underwent minor optimizations, leading to a 75% increase in operations per second. It is advisable to utilize the x87 "reduced precision" mode to enhance performance.
The fourth issue pertains to server-side request forgery (SSRF) on Windows as a result of UNC paths. This vulnerability allows a harmful server to possibly reveal NTLM hashes to an unauthorized server by using mod_rewrite or Apache commands that process unchecked request input. The server provides limited safeguards against administrators instructing it to access UNC paths. Windows servers must restrict the hosts they connect to via SMB, taking into account the characteristics of NTLM authentication.
Zed 0.194.3 has been released, featuring enhancements in error reporting, a multi-line text view, SVG previews, and settings adjustments. The update includes diagnostics for JSON, allows for retries on API errors within the agent panel, and enhances the management of debugger breakpoint properties.
The update adds support for using the NO_PROXY environment variable when an HTTP proxy is set, shows previews for SVG files, allows changes to dock size, gives alerts for unknown fields, improves how pasted newlines are handled during searches, enhances the detection of Prettier configuration files, and improves error reporting for regex parsing. Recent updates address the absence of shadows for blurred-background windows on macOS, resolve rewrap concerns, and rectify problems related to horizontal autoscrolling and indent guides. The agent panel now features automatic retries when an upstream AI API experiences overload or returns a 500 error, and the model selector has been updated to prioritize open options. The update also resolves concerns related to streaming responses and slow scrolling, as well as issues associated with Anthropic requests and Gemini models.
Commitments to Node.js involve the elimination of obsolete code, the incorporation of source maps and caches, the initialization of the HTTP proxy following the user module loader setup, and the deactivation of v8_enable_pointer_compression_shared_cage on non-64bit systems. Furthermore, updates have been made to sqlite, undici, googletest, minimatch, and various other dependencies.
Significant enhancements in Python 3.14 encompass support for free-threaded Python, deferred evaluation of type annotations, template string literals, multiple interpreters in the standard library, and the introduction of a new module for compression. The significant enhancements in Python 3.14 include Zstandard compression, syntax highlighting in the Python REPL, a zero-overhead external debugger interface for CPython, support for UUID versions 6 to 8, restrictions on return/break/continue statements that exit a finally block, enhancements to the C API for Python configuration, the introduction of a new interpreter type, improved error messaging, a built-in implementation of HMAC with formally verified code from the HACL* project, a new command-line interface for inspecting running Python processes using asynchronous tasks, and support from the pdb module for remote attachment to a running Python process.
The second release candidate for Apache 2.4.64 has been released. Apache 2.4.64 comes with a range of updates, such as the introduction of iobuffersize configured at the worker level for IO buffer size, the removal of $SSLKEYLOGFILE handling for OpenSSL 3.5 builds, adjustments to the log level for message AH01236, enhancements in reusing ProxyRemote connections when feasible, the addition of systemd socket activation support, and the logging of the SELinux context during startup. Mod_http2 has been upgraded to version 2.0.32, which resolves an issue related to the management of lengthy response headers and introduces new directives, `H2MaxHeaderBlockLen`, to establish limits on response header sizes.
Furthermore, improvements have been made to memory management in LuaOutputFilter, and a regression related to the detection of broken backend connections has been resolved. Mod_md has been upgraded to version 2.5.2, which resolves TLS-ALPN-01 challenges and corrects the absence of newlines in the status page output. Mod_dav has introduced an API to reveal the DavBasePath setting, while mod_md has incorporated support for ACME profiles through the new directives MDProfile and MDProfileMandatory.
The update encompasses modifications to the game capture hook signatures on Windows, enhancements to logging for streaming service recommended settings, and a reorganization of the Preview/Source context menu. Recent updates address several issues, including resolving crashes associated with media sources lacking a video frame size, addressing crashes on Windows during Display Capture, fixing crashes on macOS 13 or earlier when adding or loading a Browser Source or Browser Dock, and rectifying race conditions that lead to failures or hangs in subsequent recordings following an encoder timeout.

DXVK 2.7 has been released with a range of enhancements aimed at optimizing performance and ensuring better compatibility with games. The Vulkan extension VK_KHR_maintenance5 is now mandatory, and the fallbacks enabling older drivers to operate have been eliminated. The upcoming changes will predominantly impact Windows users utilizing AMD Polaris and Vega GPUs, for which AMD has officially ceased driver support.
Descriptor management has undergone a comprehensive rewrite and modernization, with VK_EXT_descriptor_buffer now serving as the default on the latest AMD and Nvidia graphics cards. Memory defragmentation is now enabled by default on Intel Battlemage and Lunar Lake GPUs, whereas this feature remains disabled on older Intel GPUs. DXVK adheres to the VRAM budget reported by the driver and efficiently manages resources by dynamically relocating unused assets to system memory during periods of memory constraint.
