Improvements

• A decommissioned BE will be forcibly dropped when all its tablets are in the recycle bin, to avoid the decommission being blocked by those tablets. #62781
• Vacuum metrics will be updated when Vacuum succeeds. #62540
• Added thread pool metrics to the fragment instance execution state report, including active threads, queue count, and running threads. #63067
• Supports S3 path-style access in shared-data clusters to improve compatibility with MinIO and other S3-compatible storage systems. You can enable this feature by setting aws.s3.enable_path_style_access to true when creating a storage volume. #62591
• Supports resetting the starting point of the AUTO_INCREMENT value via ALTER TABLE`` <table_name>`` AUTO_INCREMENT`` = 10000;. #62767
• Supports using Distinguished Name (DN) in Group Provider for group matching, improving the user group solution for LDAP/Microsoft Active Directory environments. #62711
• Supports Azure Workload Identity authentication for Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2. #62754
• Added transaction error messages to the information_schema.``loads view to aid failure diagnosis. #61364
• Supports reusing common expressions for complex CASE WHEN expressions in Scan predicates to reduce repetitive computation. #62779
• Uses the REFRESH (instead of ALTER) privilege on the materialized view to execute REFRESH statements. #62636
• Disabled low-cardinality optimization on Lake tables by default to avoid potential issues. #62586
• Enabled tablet balancing between workers by default in shared-data clusters. #62661
• Supports reusing expressions in outer-join WHERE predicates to reduce repetitive computation. #62139
• Added Clone metrics in FE. #62421
• Added Clone metrics in BE. #62479
• Added an FE configuration item enable_statistic_cache_refresh_after_write to disable statistics-cache lazy refresh by default. #62518
• Masked credential information in SUBMIT TASK for better security. #62311
• json_extract in the Trino dialect returns a JSON type. #59718
• Supports ARRAY type in null_or_empty. #62207
• Adjusted the size limit for the Iceberg manifest cache. #61966
• Added a remote file-cache limit for Hive. #62288

Bug Fixes

The following issues have been fixed:

• ANALYZE PROFILE failures caused by PlanTuningGuide producing unrecognized strings (null explainString) in the query profiles. #63024
• Inappropriate return type of hour_from_unixtime and incorrect rewrite rule of CAST. #63006
• NPE in Iceberg manifest cache under data races. #63043
• Shared-data clusters lack support for colocation in materialized views. #62941
• Iceberg table Scan Exception during Scan Range deployment. [#62994]
• Incorrect execution plans were generated for view-based rewrite. #62918
• Errors and disrupted tasks due to Compute Nodes are not gracefully shut down on exit. #62916
• NPE when Stream Load execution status updates. #62921
• An issue with statistics when the column name and the name in the PARTITION BY clause differ in case. #62953
• Wrong results are returned when the LEAST function is used as a predicate. #62826
• Invalid ProjectOperator above the table-pruning frontier CTEConsumer. #62914
• Redundant replica handling after Clone. #62542
• Failed to collect Stream Load profiles. #62802
• Ineffective disk rebalancing caused by improper BE selection. #62776
• A potential NPE crash in LocalTabletsChannel when a missing tablet_id leads to a null delta writer. #62861
• KILL ANALYZE does not take effect. [#62842]
• SQL syntax errors in histogram stats when MCV values contain single quotes. #62853
• Incorrect output format of metrics for Prometheus. #62742
• NPE when querying information_schema.analyze_status after the database is dropped. #62796
• CVE-2025-58056. #62801

• Data loss caused by incorrectly skipping CSV headers in files(). #62719
• NPE when replaying batch-transaction upserts. #62715
• Publish being incorrectly reported as successful during graceful shutdown in shared-nothing clusters. #62417
• Crash in asynchronous delta writer due to a null pointer. #62626

• Issues caused by case-sensitive partition column validation in the materialized view analyzer. #62598
• Duplicate IDs for statements with syntax errors. #62258
• StatisticsExecutor status is overridden due to redundant state assignment in CancelableAnalyzeTask. #62538
