 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- crypto-5.0.6.4 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The crypto-5.0.6.4 application can be applied independently of other
 applications on a full OTP 24 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-18670    Application(s): crypto
               Related Id(s): GH-7436, PR-7450

               Fix VM crash caused by crypto being purged and reloaded
               (by init:restart for example) on OS with musl libc
               (such as Alpine linux).


 Full runtime dependencies of crypto-5.0.6.4: erts-9.0, kernel-5.3,
 stdlib-3.4


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erts-12.3.2.14 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The erts-12.3.2.14 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:
       -- kernel-8.3 (first satisfied in OTP 24.3)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-18732    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7444, PR-7458

               Fix bug causing "magic" references in a compressed ETS
               table to not keep the referred object alive. The
               symptom would be the referred object being garbage
               collected prematurely and the reference appearing
               stale, not referring to anything. Examples of such
               magically referred objects are atomics and NIF
               resources.


  OTP-18752    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-7633

               The cleanup operation of not yet delivered signals to a
               terminated process yielded excessively.


  OTP-18790    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-7742

               If the external term format encoding of an argument
               list part of a distributed spawn operation was faulty,
               the newly spawned remote process could misbehave. The
               misbehavior included hanging or interpret an incoming
               message as an argument list to use. This was very
               unlikely to happen unless using an alternate
               implementation of the distribution protocol which made
               a faulty encoding of the argument list. The child
               process will now detect this error and terminate before
               executing the user specified code.


  OTP-18797    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-7683, PR-7712

               Fix bugs where if the body of a matchspec would return
               a map with a variable ('$1', '$_' etc) as one of the
               keys or values and the variable was not an immidiate,
               the term would not be copied to the receiving processes
               heap. This would later corrupt the term in the table as
               the GC could place move markers in it, which in turn
               would cause the VM to crash.

               Bug has been present for since OTP 17.0.

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- kernel-8.3.2.4 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The kernel-8.3.2.4 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:
       -- erts-12.3 (first satisfied in OTP 24.3)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-18707    Application(s): kernel
               Related Id(s): #7530

               gen_tcp:connect with socket address and socket (inet-)
               backend fails because of missing callback function.

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

 Note! The ssl-10.7.3.9 application *cannot* be applied independently
       of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 24 installation.

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

               When a client initiated renegotiation was rejected and
               the client socket was in active mode the expected error
               message to the controlling process was not sent.
