+## Enhancements
+
+- [#10584](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10584) Add log level configuration to SSL communication
+
+- [#10702](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10702) Introduce a more straightforward configuration option `keepalive_multiplier` and
+  deprecate the old `keepalive_backoff` configuration.
+  After this enhancement, EMQX checks the client's keepalive timeout status
+  period by multiplying the "Client Requested Keepalive Interval" with `keepalive_multiplier`.
+
+- [#10713](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10713) We hide the request_timeout in resource_option of the webhook to keep it consistent with the http request_timeout of the webhook.
+  From now on, when configuring a webhook through API or configuration files,
+  it is no longer necessary to configure the request_timeout of the resource. Only configuring the http request_timeout is sufficient, and the request_timeout in the resource will automatically be consistent with the http request_timeout.
+
+- [#10511](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10511) Improve the security and privacy of some resource logs by masking sensitive information in the data.
+
+- [#10678](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10678) Optimized counter increment calls to avoid work if increment is zero.
+
+- [#10690](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10690) Added a retry mechanism to webhook bridge that attempts to improve throughput.
+
+  This optimization retries request failures without blocking the buffering layer, which can improve throughput in situations of high messaging rate.
+
+- [#10698](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10698) Optimize memory usage when accessing the configuration during runtime.
+
+## Bug Fixes
+
+- [#10340](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10340) Fixed the issue that could lead to crash logs being printed when stopping EMQX via systemd.
+  ```
+  2023-03-29T16:43:25.915761+08:00 [error] Generic server memsup terminating. Reason: {port_died,normal}. Last message: {'EXIT',<0.2117.0>,{port_died,normal}}.

+  ```
+
+- [#10563](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10563) Corrected an issue where the no_local flag was not functioning correctly.
+
+
+- [#10600](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10600) Deleted emqx_statsd application.
+
+
+- [#10653](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10653) Store gateway authentication TLS certificates and keys in the data directory.
+
+- [#10677](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10677) In Rule API, reapond with 404 HTTP error code when trying to delete a rule that does not exist.
+
+- [#10682](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10682) Fix the timestamp for the will message is incorrectly assigned at the session creation time, now this timestamp is the disconnected time of the session.
+
+- [#10701](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10701) RPM package for Amazon Linux 2 did not support TLS v1.3 as it was assembled with Erlang/OTP built with openssl 1.0.
+
+- [#10715](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10715) Postpone trimming the connection information structure until after `client.connected` hooks have been executed. These hooks once again have access to the client's peer certificate.
+
+- [#10717](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10717) Fixed an issue where the buffering layer processes could use a lot of CPU when inflight window is full.
+
+- [#10724](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10724) A summary has been added for all endpoints in the HTTP API documentation (accessible at "http://emqx_host_name:18083/api-docs").
+
+- [#10726](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10726) Validate Health Check Interval and Auto Restart Interval against the range from 1ms to 1 hour.
+
+- [#10728](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10728) Fixed an issue where the rule engine was unable to access variables exported by `FOREACH` in the `DO` clause.
+
+  Given a payload: `{"date": "2023-05-06", "array": ["a"]}`, as well as the following SQL statement:
+  ```
+  FOREACH payload.date as date, payload.array as elem
+  DO date, elem
+  FROM "t/#"
+  ```
+  Prior to the fix, the `date` variable exported by `FOREACH` could not be accessed in the `DO` clause of the above SQL, resulting in the following output for the SQL statement:
+  `[{"elem": "a","date": "undefined"}]`.
+  After the fix, the output of the SQL statement is: `[{"elem": "a","date": "2023-05-06"}]`
+
+- [#10737](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10737) Fix the issue where the HTTP API interface of Gateway cannot handle ClientIDs with
+  special characters, such as: `!@#$%^&*()_+{}:"<>?/`.
+
+- [#10742](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10742) Check the correctness of the rules before saving the authorization file source.
+  Previously, Saving wrong rules could lead to restart failure.
+
+- [#10743](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10743) Fixes an issue where trying to get a bridge info or metrics could result in a crash when a node is joining a cluster.
+
+- [#10746](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10746) Add missing support of the event `$events/delivery_dropped` into the rule engine test API `rule_test`.
+
+- [#10747](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10747) Refactor date and time functions, `format_date` and `date_to_unix_ts`, in the rule engine to fix the implementation problem.
+
+- [#10755](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10755) Fixed data bridge resource update race condition.
+
+  In the 'delete + create' process for EMQX resource updates,
+  long bridge creation times could cause dashboard request timeouts.
+  If a bridge resource update was initiated before completion of its creation,
+  it led to an erroneous deletion from the runtime, despite being present in the config file.
+
+  This fix addresses the race condition in bridge resource updates,
+  ensuring the accurate identification and addition of new resources,
+  maintaining consistency between runtime and configuration file statuses.
+
+- [#10760](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10760) Fix Internal Error 500 that occurred sometimes when bridge statistics page was updated while a node was (re)joining the cluster.
+
+- [#10761](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10761) Fixing the issue where the default value of SSL certificate for Dashboard Listener was not correctly interpolated, which caused HTTPS to be inaccessible when verify_peer and cacertfile were using the default configuration.
+
+- [#10785](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10785) Ensure `EMQX_LOG_DIR` is set by Windows boot script.
+
+  The environment variable `EMQX_LOG_DIR` was missing in v5.0.25, caused EMQX Windows package fail to boot unless set by sysadmin.
+
+- [#10801](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10801) Avoid duplicated percent decode the topic name in API `/topics/{topic}` and `/topics`.
+
+- [#10809](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10809) Address  `** ERROR ** Mnesia post_commit hook failed: error:badarg` error messages happening during node shutdown or restart.
+  Mria pull request: https://github.com/emqx/mria/pull/142
+
+- [#10817](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/10817) Fix the error of not being able to configure `auto_restart_interval` as infinity
+
