Notable changes in this release:

  • Geth has a new subcommand, geth version-check, which displays known security issues (#21859)
  • The geth --ws.origins flag now supports more expressive origin rules (#21481)
  • Recording of trie key preimages can now be disabled using the --cache.preimages flag (#21402)
