  • ca: Fix bug with Vault CA provider where token renewal goroutines could leak if CA failed to initialize. [GH-19285]
  • connect: Solves an issue where two upstream services with the same name in different namespaces were not getting routed to correctly by API Gateways. [GH-19860]
  • federation: (Enterprise Only) Fixed an issue where namespace reconciliation could result into the secondary having dangling instances of namespaces marked for deletion
  • ui: clear peer on home logo link [GH-19549]
  • ui: fix being able to view peered services from non-default namespaces [GH-19586]
  • ui: stop manually reconciling services if peering is enabled [GH-19907]
