• sdk/rotation: Prevent rotation attempts on read-only storage.
• secrets-sync (enterprise): Added support for a boolean force_delete flag (default: false). When set to true, this flag allows deletion of a destination even if its associations cannot be unsynced. This option should be used only as a last-resort deletion mechanism, as any secrets already synced to the external provider will remain orphaned and require manual cleanup.
• secrets/pki: Avoid loading issuer information multiple times per leaf certificate signing.

BUG FIXES:

• core/activitylog (enterprise): Resolve a stability issue where Vault Enterprise could encounter a panic during month-end billing activity rollover.

• secrets-sync (enterprise): Corrected a bug where the deletion of the latest KV-V2 secret version caused the associated external secret to be deleted entirely. The sync job now implements a version fallback mechanism to find and sync the highest available active version, ensuring continuity and preventing the unintended deletion of the external secret resource.
• secrets-sync (enterprise): Fix issue where secrets were not properly un-synced after destination config changes.
• secrets-sync (enterprise): Fix issue where sync store deletion could be attempted when sync is disabled.
• ui/pki: Fix handling of values that contain commas in list fields like crl_distribution_points.

IMPROVEMENTS:

• CLI: adds an optional flag (--fail-if-not-fulfilled) to the renew command, which lets the renew command fail on unfulfillable requests and allows command chaining to allow further executions. [GH-29060]
• audit: Audit logs will contain User-Agent headers when they are present in the incoming request. They are not HMAC'ed by default but can be configured to be via the /sys/config/auditing/request-headers/user-agent endpoint. [GH-28596]
• auth/approle: seal wrap approle secrets if seal wrap is enabled. [GH-28703]
• auth/cert: Add new configuration option enable_metadata_on_failures to add client cert metadata on login failures to audit log and response [GH-29044]

• physical/dynamodb: Allow Vault to modify its DynamoDB table and use per-per-request billing mode. [GH-29371]
• raft/autopilot: We've updated the autopilot reconciliation logic (by updating the raft-autopilot dependency to v0.3.0) to avoid artificially increasing the quorum in presence of an unhealthy node. Now autopilot will start the reconciliation process by attempting to demote a failed voter node before any promotions, fixing the issue where Vault would initially increase quorum when faced with a failure of a voter node. In certain configurations, especially when using Vault Enterprise Redundancy Zones and losing a voter then a non-voter in quick succession, this would lead to a loss of quorum and cluster failure.
