Release 2.8.5 Tue September 22 2026
        Security fixes:
           #1282  CVE-2026-93990 -- Reject high surrogates not followed by a
                    low surrogate during UTF-16 decoding; previously, malformed
                    UTF-16 could be smuggled into the application using Expat
                    and could cause arbitrary damage there, depending on how
                    malformed UTF-16 was handled inside the application;
                    validation was not their job but Expat's. This is similar
                    to past vulnerability CVE-2022-25235.

                    AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H (CVSS score: 9.8)
