 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- erts-12.2.1 -----------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 The erts-12.2.1 application can be applied independently of other
 applications on a full OTP 24 installation.

 --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---

  OTP-17827    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): GH-5527

               Fixed a memory leak in file:read_file_info/2 and
               file:read_file/1 on Windows.


  OTP-17871    Application(s): erts
               Related Id(s): PR-5612

               Fix GC emulator crash when spawn_request was used when
               message tracing was enabled.


 Full runtime dependencies of erts-12.2.1: kernel-8.0, sasl-3.3,
 stdlib-3.13


 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
 --- ssl-10.6.1 ------------------------------------------------------
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Note! The ssl-10.6.1 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-17794    Application(s): ssl
               Related Id(s): GH-4450, GH-5341

               Improve SNI (server name indication) handling so that
               protocol version can be selected with regards to SNI.
               Also, make sure that ssl:connection_information/1
               returns the correct SNI value.


  OTP-17829    Application(s): ssl
               Related Id(s): ERIERL-708

               Fixed cipher suite listing functions so that the
               listing of all cipher suites will be complete. Another
               fix for cipher suite handling in OTP-24.1 accidentally
               excludes a few cipher suites from the listing of all
               cipher suites.


  OTP-17879    Application(s): ssl
               Related Id(s): GH-5624

               Reenable legacy cipher suite
               TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA for explicit
               configuration in TLS-1.2, not supported by default.


 --- Improvements and New Features ---

  OTP-17831    Application(s): ssl

               Avoid unnecessary logs by better adjusting the
               tls_sender process to the new supervisor structure in
               OTP-24.2


 Full runtime dependencies of ssl-10.6.1: crypto-5.0, erts-10.0,
 inets-5.10.7, kernel-8.0, public_key-1.11.3, runtime_tools-1.15.1,
 stdlib-3.12
