Security Content
This section will be updated with security advisories as they are made public. We are not disclosing the security content of this release in order to give users time to upgrade.
Known Issues
Data column backfill can OOM, particularly on Gnosis chain. This is fixed in v8.3.0-rc.0 and will be included in v8.3.0 shortly. We do not recommend re-syncing on v8.2.x unnecessarily, as this issue affects every prior release of Lighthouse as well.
