+- Security: prevent symlinks inside a trusted `secure_dir`/template directory from being used to read files outside of it (CWE-22 path traversal), affecting `{include}` and `{fetch}` of local files
+- Security: `{html_image}` now escapes the `file`, `path_prefix`, `href`/`link`, `width` and `height` attributes (it already escaped `alt` and pass-through attributes), and `{html_select_date}` casts `day_size`/`month_size`/`year_size` to int (matching `{html_select_time}`), preventing untrusted values passed into these attributes from breaking out of the generated HTML (CWE-79)
+- Security: `{fetch}` no longer follows HTTP redirects for remote resources while a security policy is active, preventing an open redirect on a trusted host from bypassing `trusted_uri` (CWE-918 server-side request forgery)
+- Fixed "Attempt to assign property step on null" error when using a {for} loop inside a block of an extended template [#1036](https://github.com/smarty-php/smarty/issues/1036)
