Hi all,

Sorry for the late update.

All identified security issues have been resolved. We are now preparing to
create the 4.20.2.0 release again.

The new code freeze date is 15th October 2025 (23:59 UTC).
RC1 will be cut on 16th October 2025, if there are no blocker/critical
issues.

Please let me know if you have any questions or any PRs to merge.


Kind regards,
Wei
