 Check out the git tag OTP-23.3.4.14, and build a full OTP system
 including documentation. Apply one or more applications from this
 build as patches to your installation using the 'otp_patch_apply'
 tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for
 each application version below.

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- compiler-7.6.9.2 ------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The compiler-7.6.9.2 application can be applied independently of
 other applications on a full OTP 23 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-18082    Application(s): compiler

               In rare circumstances, the compiler would mistakenly
               assume that a call to setelement/3 would always fail
               and remove all code following the call.


 Full runtime dependencies of compiler-7.6.9.2: crypto-3.6, erts-11.0,
 hipe-3.12, kernel-7.0, stdlib-3.13


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erts-11.2.2.13 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The erts-11.2.2.13 application *cannot* be applied
       independently of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 23
       installation.

       On a full OTP 23 installation, also the following runtime
       dependency has to be satisfied:
       -- kernel-7.3.1.5 (first satisfied in OTP 23.3.4.12)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17970    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-5762

               Let EPMD tolerate failure when binding to IPv4/IPv6
               loopback intefaces in addition to user-supplied
               addresses via ERL_EPMD_ADDRESS or the -address option.
               This can happen, for example, if the host system has
               ipv6 disabled via the disable_ipv6 sysctl.


  OTP-18027    Application(s): erts

               Fixed a rare bug in binary_to_term/1,
               enif_make_map_from_arrays, erl_drv_send_term, and
               Erlang distribution that could crash the emulator.


  OTP-18065    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5908

               Fixed a rare race in persistent_term:get/1,2 that could
               cause it to return the value of another key.


  OTP-18075    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-5927

               Fix bug where the process message queue was left in an
               inconsistent state when changing from on_heap to
               off_heap message queue data causing the GC to segfault.


  OTP-18076    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): ERIERL-802, PR-5905

               Fix functions that convert universal to localtime (such
               as erlang:localtime/0 and
               erlang:universaltime_to_localtime/1) to fetch the
               correct localtime if it is changed after the start of
               the VM.


  OTP-18077    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5876, PR-5892

               Fix memory leak when a process doing a distributed
               fragmented send is sent an exit signal. Before this fix
               the receiving node would be left with an incomplete
               message that would remain until the nodes were
               disconnected. The bug has existed since Erlang/OTP 21.


 Full runtime dependencies of erts-11.2.2.13: kernel-7.3.1.5,
 sasl-3.3, stdlib-3.13
