Breaking Changes

Issue #1

The way Admin Panel login and register JWTs work has fundamentally changed from version 5.23.6. Projects or plugins relying on undocumented functionality or internal behavior related to Admin JWTs are very likely to break, potentially affecting Admin Panel login.

Issue #2

If you rely on Admin JWT internals, you must review the new JWT management modes documentation and update your configuration or code accordingly.

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Review the new JWT management modes documentation for Users and Permissions and Admin Panel configurations if your project interacts heavily with Admin JWTs.

Release Summary

Version 5.24.2 introduces Advanced Session Configuration and fixes several bugs, including database corruption and issues related to JWT handling, while also patching a security vulnerability.
