 tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for
 each application version below.

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- crypto-4.4.2.1 --------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The crypto-4.4.2.1 application can be applied independently of other
 applications on a full OTP 21 installation.

 --- Improvements and New Features ---

  OTP-16133    Application(s): crypto
               Related Id(s): PR-2407

               The chipers aes_cfb8 and aes_cfb128 are now using the
               EVP interface. The supported key lengths are 128, 192
               and 256 bits.


  OTP-16134    Application(s): crypto
               Related Id(s): PR-2407

               The chipers aes_cfb8 and aes_cfb128 are now available
               in FIPS enabled mode.


 Full runtime dependencies of crypto-4.4.2.1: erts-9.0, kernel-5.3,
 stdlib-3.4


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erts-10.3.5.6 ---------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The erts-10.3.5.6 application *cannot* be applied independently
       of other applications on an arbitrary OTP 21 installation.

       On a full OTP 21 installation, also the following runtime
       dependencies have to be satisfied:
       -- kernel-6.1 (first satisfied in OTP 21.1)
       -- sasl-3.3 (first satisfied in OTP 21.2)


 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-16058    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-2382

               Fix a bug in binary_to_term that would crash the
               emulator if a term larger than 16GB was to be decoded.


  OTP-16107    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): ERL-1049

               When communicating with a simultaneously exiting port
               via the erlang:port_*() BIFs one could sometimes get
               stray {Ref, What} messages. Where Ref was a reference
               and What usually were the atom badarg.
