  OTP-17679    Application(s): otp
               Related Id(s): PR-5251

               Fix handling of the top configure command line
               arguments --srcdir=<DIR>, --cache-file=<FILE>,
               --without-<APP>, CFLAGS=<FLAGS>, and LDFLAGS=<FLAGS>
               which failed on some platforms.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17675    Application(s): erts

               Reduction counter was not updated before and after
               doing apply operations on the runtime system with the
               jit enabled. This caused reduction counting to get out
               of sync if a garbage collection was made as part of the
               apply operation.


  OTP-17677    Application(s): erts

               This fixes a bug in erts_factory_undo that caused the
               heap to not be reset correctly. The erts_factory_undo
               function is, for example, called when a
               binary_to_term/1 call fails to reset the heap to its
               state before the binary_to_term/1 call. This can cause
               the heap to contain invalid terms which potentially can
               cause issues (e.g., crashes) when the whole heap is
               scanned.


  OTP-17686    Application(s): erts

               When attempting to construct a binary with an segment
               having an illegal type for the size (e.g. an atom),
               there could be an unnecessary memory allocation (and
               subsequent deallocation) before the operation failed.
               Amended to fail before allocating any memory for the
               binary.


  OTP-17700    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5271, PR-5273

               Fix bug in persistent_term when a key-value pair
               contains a magic reference that is referred more than
               once. Magic references are NIF resources or returned
               from BIFs like ets:new, atomics:new. The bug could
               cause the memory of the referred resource to be
               prematurely deallocated.

               The bug also apply to magic references in message
               passing on a runtime built with configure option
               --enable-sharing-preserving.

               Bug exist for 64-bit since OTP-24.0 and for 32-bit
               since OTP-20.0.


  OTP-17712    Application(s): erts

               Fixed a crash when inspecting the stack trace of an
               exception raised at a very high line number.

               This bug was introduced in OTP 24.


  OTP-17722    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5310, PR-5313

               The following two bugs that caused erlang:demonitor()
               to behave erroneously have been fixed. The bugs were
               only triggered if the monitor that was removed by
               demonitor() had previously been created simultaneously
               as a monitor and as an alias.

               -- A demonitor operation on a monitor created using the
               {alias, reply_demonitor} option erroneously behaved as
               if the {alias, explicit_unalias} option had been used.

               -- A demonitor operation did not prevent a
               corresponding 'DOWN' message from being delivered if
               the monitor reference was kept as an active alias after
               the operation. This could only occur if the monitored
               process simultaneously terminated before the demonitor
               signal reached it, and the exit reason was not an
               immediate term. That is, a term larger than one machine
               word.

 stdlib-3.13


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- ssl-10.5.2 ------------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The ssl-10.5.2 application *cannot* be applied independently of
       other applications on an arbitrary OTP 24 installation.

       On a full OTP 24 installation, also the following runtime
       dependency has to be satisfied:
       -- public_key-1.11.3 (first satisfied in OTP 24.1.2)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17688    Application(s): ssl
               Related Id(s): GH-5255

               Fix TLS-1.2 RSA-PSS negotiation and also fix broken
               certificate request message for pre-TLS-1.3 servers.


  OTP-17723    Application(s): ssl
               Related Id(s): GH-5300

               Fix CRL issuer verification that under some
               circumstances could fail with a function_clause error.


 Full runtime dependencies of ssl-10.5.2: crypto-5.0, erts-10.0,
 inets-5.10.7, kernel-8.0, public_key-1.11.3, runtime_tools-1.15.1,
