For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
Bug Fix(es):
* A replication connection can be erroneously flagged as a non-replication connection causing the evaluation of the access control rules (BZ#1993267).
* If a persistent search encounters an error entries were previously still being returned. This has been fixed (BZ#1993266).
* Indexes added by plugins are not enabled, and cause some plugins to perform unexpected internal unindexed searches. Now indexes added by plugins are enabled immediately (BZ#1993263).
