+25.7.9 (December 04, 2025)
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+A bug snug into the last release that did not properly disable the
+caching of DNS entries when using multiple blocklists with different
+network restrictions.  We have used the opportunity to polish the
+notification code and apply behaviour during the migration of the
+old blocklist to the new format.
+
+The saga around safe command execution continues in this release
+as well.  Otherwise it is a rather quiet release and 2025 is almost
+over.  Happy holidays!
+
+Here are the full patch notes:
+
+* system: gateway monitor Shell class use et al
+* system: no longer back up DUID but add compatibility glue to opnsense-importer
+* system: replace exec() in config encrypt/decrypt
+* system: replace history diff exec() with shell_safe()
+* system: safe execution tweaks in rc.routing_configure
+* system: fix log keyword search regression introduced in 25.7.7
+* reporting: unbound: fix quick allow/blocklist actions by applying them to all blocklists
+* firewall: run filterlog directly after rules apply and remove promiscous mode
