Check out the git tag OTP-29.1.1, and build a full OTP system including documentation. Apply one or more applications from this build as patches to your installation using the 'otp_patch_apply' tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for each application version below.

POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES
  • Fixed a vulnerability where the max_channels daemon option was not enforced for session channels without an active subsystem, allowing a remote authenticated user to open an infinite number of channels and exhaust server resources despite the configured limit.

    The default value of the max_channels daemon option has been changed from infinity to 256. Deployments requiring more than 256 simultaneous channels per connection can restore the previous behavior by setting {max_channels, infinity}.

    The default value of the max_sessions daemon option has been changed from infinity to 1024. Deployments requiring more concurrent SSH connections can restore the previous behavior by setting {max_sessions, infinity}.

asn1-5.5.2

The asn1-5.5.2 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
  • Fixed a denial-of-service attack in asn1, where abnormally large OID components (arcs) could cause resource exhaustion.

    Own Id: OTP-20272
    Related Id(s): PR-11655, CVE-2026-65634

  • The JER backend will no longer break certain values (true, false, null) when they are typed as ENUMERATED, they will now be encoded as strings as required by the standard.

compiler-10.0.6

The compiler-10.0.6 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
  • Certain uses of funs could crash the compiler. For example:

    f() ->
        F = fun Fn(0) -> 0; Fn(N) -> Fn(N - 1) end,
        [F(X) || X <- [1, 2]].

POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITIES
  • When beam_lib returns an error tuple, the filename in the information tuple is now a list of characters instead of an atom.

    Example:

    1> beam_lib:chunks(code:which(lists), ["nope"]).
    {error,beam_lib,
           {missing_chunk,".../git/otp/lib/stdlib/ebin/lists.beam",
                          "nope"}}
    

    The reason for this change is that a long file name is not guaranteed to fit in an atom. Applications or tools that do deep inspection of the beam_lib errors (not recommended) will need to be updated.

  • Fixed rounding errors when converting large integers to floating point numbers, explicitly with float/1 or implicitly in arithmetic such as 1.0 * N. Integers with absolute values larger than 64 bits that could not be represented exactly as a float could be rounded to the second nearest float instead of the nearest. For example, float(428654966685883400000) returned 4.2865496668588343e20 instead of the correct 4.286549666858834e20, which is what binary_to_float/1 returns for the same number.

  • The BIFs that convert strings to integers (for example binary_to_integer/1) are now much faster for huge input strings. On a modern computer, even a string with more than a million decimal digits should finish in less than a second.

    The div and rem operators are now also much faster for large operands.

The inets-9.8 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Improvements and New Features
  • OPTIONS is now accepted for HTTP/1.x requests and routed through the normal module pipeline like other standard methods. Requests that no module handles still receive a 501 (Not Implemented) response, so behavior is unchanged for deployments that do not add explicit OPTIONS handling.

  • Decoding of names in inet_res has been tightened to not allow names longer than 255 octets, as according to RFC 1035.

    Decoding has also been made more strict by only allowing compression pointers to lower positions in the message.

mnesia-4.27

The mnesia-4.27 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
  • Fixed mnesia:force_load_table/1 getting stuck when the remote node becomes unreachable during table loading. When a network loader is aborted due to sender node going down and a user has forced a table load, we now retry loading from disc instead. Additionally, for disc_only_copies tables, the process actually loading the table is the dets server process, not the mnesia loader, so it would not receive the abort notification and would hang indefinitely. Now it correctly receives the notification and aborts table loading.

The stdlib-8.1 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
  • When beam_lib returns an error tuple, the filename in the information tuple is now a list of characters instead of an atom.

    Example:

    1> beam_lib:chunks(code:which(lists), ["nope"]).
    {error,beam_lib,
           {missing_chunk,".../git/otp/lib/stdlib/ebin/lists.beam",
                          "nope"}}
    

    The reason for this change is that a long file name is not guaranteed to fit in an atom. Applications or tools that do deep inspection of the beam_lib errors (not recommended) will need to be updated.

Improvements and New Features
  • uri_string:parse/1 now reports the actual offending character in error tuples instead of reporting a misleading cascade-failure position.

    Previously, when parsing a URI containing an invalid character (such as | or non-ASCII characters like ö), the error tuple would point to the : character — the position where the parser's final backtracking attempt failed — rather than the character that actually violated the URI grammar. For example, uri_string:parse("http://localhost/A|B") returned {error,invalid_uri,":"} instead of the more helpful {error,invalid_uri,"|"}

  • Fixed a guard precedence bug in uri_string:compose_query/2 that caused inconsistent error handling depending on the encoding option.

    When compose_query/2 was called with invalid input (e.g. an atom instead of a string) and {encoding, unicode}, it would crash with ** exception error: bad argument instead of returning the expected {error, invalid_input, Term} tuple. The same call with {encoding, utf8} correctly returned the error tuple. Both encoding options now consistently return {error, invalid_input, Term} for invalid input.

Per RFC 7230 Section 3.2.4, such headers are now rejected with 400 Bad Request.

  • A new httpd option request_timeout (default 60 seconds, renamed from the interim max_body_read_timeout) bounds the idle time between reads of a request body/message. The server now also sends 408 Request Timeout when the min_bytes_per_second floor is hit, and keep_alive_timeout measurement was corrected so the timer is cancelled as soon as new data arrives rather than only after full header parsing; keep_alive_timeout and request_timeout now also accept infinity to disable the timeout.

  • mod_auth, mod_security, and mod_get compared resolved filesystem paths against configured protected-directory patterns without normalizing repeated slashes or filesystem case. On case-insensitive filesystems (macOS, Windows) or with repeated slashes, a request could resolve to a protected resource while evading the directory match. Paths are now canonicalized (slash-collapsed, and case-normalized when the filesystem is case-insensitive) before the authorization decision.

  • A request with an invalid chunked transfer-encoding chunk size previously caused the httpd connection handler to hang indefinitely without requiring further input from the client. This leaked a process per request and could be used to exhaust server resources (denial of service). Invalid chunk sizes are now rejected immediately with an error response, and the connection is closed.

    Related Id(s): [PR-11539]

  • max_body_size was previously enforced only after a complete chunk had been received, allowing a single oversized chunk to be buffered in full before the limit was checked — undermining the memory-exhaustion protection the option is meant to provide. The limit is now enforced incrementally as chunk data arrives, rejecting the request as soon as the configured size is exceeded.

  • The documented default of 150 for the max_clients option was not applied by the implementation, allowing an unbounded number of concurrent clients to connect regardless of configuration. The default is now correctly enforced.

  • Fixed a bug where httpd failed to start when configured with {socket_type, {ip_comm, SockOpts}} and a fixed (non-zero) port.

  • httpc now enforces a limit on the total size of response headers and response body, preventing unbounded memory allocation when connecting to a malicious or malfunctioning server. The new max_header_size and max_body_size request options can be used to override the default limit (10240 bytes for headers). Additionally, httpc now validates that the Content-Length header contains only digits before use, avoiding a crash on malformed responses.

megaco-4.9.2

The megaco-4.9.2 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions

  • Numeric fields in megaco text-encoded messages are now validated for digit-string length before integer conversion, improving robustness of the text decoder. Per-field digit limits based on the H.248.1 ASN.1 type constraints are enforced (e.g., 10 digits for UINT32, 2 digits for timer values), along with a 100 KB overall message size cap at the scanner entry point. The binary (BER/PER) codec is not affected.

mnesia-4.26.2

The mnesia-4.26.2 application can be applied independently of other applications on a full OTP 29 installation.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions

  • A transaction iterating a table (first/1, last/1, next/2, prev/2, select, select_reverse on non-ordered_set) leaked a safe_fixtable hold when the coordinator was killed by an external signal. The table remained fixed for the lifetime of the node, preventing space reclamation of deleted objects.

  • Fixed a race condition where mnesia_controller could crash if a table was deleted while mnesia:set_master_nodes/2 was being processed.

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions

  • The SNMP PDU decoder now bounds the byte length accepted for INTEGER, Counter32, Gauge32/Unsigned32, TimeTicks, and Counter64 values during decoding (4, 5, 5, 5, and 9 bytes respectively, matching the SMIv2 value ranges), instead of accepting an arbitrarily large byte string and converting it to an integer.

Improvements and New Features

  • Hardening improvements of the ssl application.

    TLS distribution now defaults to TLS-1.3 instead of TLS-1.2 (TLS-1.2 is kept as fallback for rolling upgrades).

    TLS-1.2 server with {verify, verify_peer} now defaults reuse_sessions to false to mitigate the Triple Handshake attack (RFC 7627). Set {reuse_sessions, true} explicitly to restore previous behavior.

    Various missing or faulty sanity checks added and TLS alerts adjusted to comply with RFC MUST requirements, including: signature algorithm validation for intermediate certificates, TLS-1.3 session_id echo, pre_shared_key extension ordering, and renegotiation_info enforcement.

    Hardened and improved CRL support. Introduces new option allowed_hosts for the optional CRL HTTP fetching feature to restrict which hosts may be contacted. Internal/loopback IPs are now blocked by default (SSRF protection).

    TLS-1.3 client ticket handling is more robust (locked tickets are released on client crash). Server TLS-1.3 ticket handling and anti-replay Bloom filter performance are optimized.

    DTLS duplicate ChangeCipherSpec handling simplified, fixing potential state machine confusion (GH-11075).

    Process state formatting no longer leaks secrets in crash logs.
