               Fix bug where the system installed openssl/md5.h would
               be confused with the vendored md5.h.

 --- erts-14.2.2 -----------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The erts-14.2.2 application can be applied independently of other
 applications on a full OTP 26 installation.

  OTP-18911    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): ERIERL-1023, PR-7983

               32-bit runtime systems on most Unix like platforms
               could crash if a BIF timer was set with a huge timeout
               of more than 68 years into the future. In order for the
               crash to occur, the huge timer (at a later time than
               when it was set) had to become the nearest active timer
               set on the specific scheduler on which it was set. This
               could not happen on a system with only one scheduler
               since there would always be shorter timers in the
               system.

               Setting a timer larger than 49 days on Windows could
               under rare circumstances cause the timeout to be
               delayed.


  OTP-18931    Application(s): erl_interface, erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7987, PR-7989

               Fix bug where the system installed openssl/md5.h would
               be confused with the vendored md5.h.


  OTP-18949    Application(s): erts

               The JIT has now been disabled on x86 Macs to prevent
               annoying the "verifying shm-xyz" popups introduced in
               MacOS Sonoma.

               ARM Macs are unaffected.


  OTP-18957    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-8051, OTP-18841, PR-8088

               Garbage collection of a process on a dirty scheduler
               could collide with signal handling for that process
               causing a crash of the runtime system. This bug was
               introduced in OTP 25.3.2.8 and OTP 26.2.

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The kernel-9.2.1 application can be applied independently of other
 applications on a full OTP 26 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-18901    Application(s): kernel

               Fix group (that is the shell) to properly handle when
               an get_until callback function returned {done, eof, []}
               when an eof was detected.


 Full runtime dependencies of kernel-9.2.1: crypto-5.0, erts-14.0,
 sasl-3.0, stdlib-5.0


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- ssh-5.1.2 -------------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

               With this change, Curve25519 and Curve448 KEX methods
               become most preferred (related to RFC8731).


 Full runtime dependencies of ssh-5.1.2: crypto-5.0, erts-14.0,
