 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17548    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): OTP-10391, PR-5078

               A call to the process_info() BIF could end up hanging
               for ever due to a bug introduced when the new selective
               receive optimization was introduced in OTP 24.0. Note
               that this bug only effects process_info().


  OTP-17560    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5116

               Fix buffer overrun problem in the tty driver. The
               problem happens on some platforms when using the CTRL+R
               functionality of newshell with very long strings in the
               history.


  OTP-17568    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-4940

               Fix race-condition that could cause a crash when
               tracing scheduling or garbage collections on a process
               that was running on a dirty scheduler.


  OTP-17585    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5150

               Fix rare bug where re:run would crash/return invalid
               results when given a subbinary as subject.

               This bug has existed since Erlang/OTP 20.0.


  OTP-17594    Application(s): erts

               binary_to_term/1,2 is now more resilient against
               corrupted binaries containing maps in the external
               format.


 Full runtime dependencies of erts-12.0.4: kernel-8.0, sasl-3.3,
