improved performance of innodb conversion operations between big/little endian (MDEV-39027)
An UPDATE could fail to return the error ER_CHECKREAD when innodb_snapshot_isolation=ON and the transaction that had last modified the record was committed during the lock acquisition. (MDEV-39263)

FILE privilege isn't checked for derived table (MDEV-39493)
Backup
Fixed mariabackup to report my_close() failures and prevent false success messages when disk space is exhausted. (MDEV-38562)
Data Definition - Alter Table
Fixes the issue occurred when ALTER TABLE contained duplicate DROP FOREIGN KEY operations (e.g., "DROP FOREIGN KEY f1, DROP FOREIGN KEY f1"). (MDEV-19194)
Fix InnoDB index corruption when renaming key names with case-only differences. (MDEV-34951)
PAGE_COMPRESSED ALTER TABLE operations inconsistent with innodb_file_per_table setting (MDEV-37886)
Data types
Change the "-0" results in many SELECT scenarios to just return "0". (MDEV-38670)
Encryption

GIS
Empty string is erroneously allowed as a GEOMETRY column value (MDEV-15479)
ST_PointOnSurface returns NULL with Polygon in some case (MDEV-35766)

"Warning: Memory not freed: 32" after server shutdown when SELECT COLUMN_JSON() has been used (MDEV-36929)
JSON search functions, JSON_EXISTS, JSON_EXTRACT, JSON_VALUE, JSON_QUERY, JSON_CONTAINS, JSON_CONTAINS_PATH, JSON_ARRAY_APPEND, JSON_ARRAY_INSERT, JSON_LENGTH, JSON_INSERT, JSON_REMOVE, JSON_KEYS, could result in a overwrite of memory resulting in a crash. (MDEV-39213)

Fixed critical crashes in InnoDB purge threads when processing tables with indexed virtual columns. Resolved race conditions where purge workers incorrectly reused cached TABLE* objects across different tables in the same batch, and added retry logic to handle concurrent DDL operations that could invalidate table handles during purge processing.
