 ## 🚀 Release Notes
 
+**2025.12.24 - Version 2.5.24**
+
+- **🍎 Fix: MPS memory leak regression** - Restored MPS cache clearing after VAE encode/decode operations that was accidentally removed during code cleanup in v2.5.23
+
+**2025.12.24 - Version 2.5.23**
+
+- **🔒 Security: Prevent code execution in model loading** - Added protection against malicious .pth files by restricting deserialization to tensors only
+- **🎥 Fix: FFmpeg video writer reliability** - Resolved ffmpeg process hanging issues by redirecting stderr and adding buffer flush, with improved error messages for debugging *(thanks [@thehhmdb](https://github.com/thehhmdb))*
+- **⚡ Fix: GGUF VAE model support** - Enabled automatic weight dequantization for convolution operations, making GGUF-quantized VAE models fully functional *(thanks [@naxci1](https://github.com/naxci1))*
+- **🛡️ Fix: VAE slicing edge cases** - Protected against division by zero crashes when using small split sizes with high temporal downsampling *(thanks [@naxci1](https://github.com/naxci1))*
+- **🎨 Fix: LAB color transfer precision** - Resolved dtype mismatch errors during video upscaling by ensuring consistent float types before matrix operations
+- **🔧 Fix: PyTorch 2.9+ compatibility** - Extended Conv3d memory workaround to all PyTorch 2.9+ versions, fixing 3x VRAM usage on newer PyTorch releases
+- **📦 Fix: Bitsandbytes compatibility** - Added ValueError exception handling for Intel Gaudi version detection failures on non-Gaudi systems
+- **🍎 MPS: Memory optimization** - Reduced memory usage during encode/decode operations on Apple Silicon *(thanks [@s-cerevisiae](https://github.com/s-cerevisiae))*
+
+
+**2025.12.13 - Version 2.5.22**
+
+- **🎬 CLI: FFmpeg video backend with 10-bit support** - New `--video_backend ffmpeg` and `--10bit` flags enable x265 encoding with 10-bit color depth, reducing banding artifacts in gradients compared to 8-bit OpenCV output *(based on PR by [@thehhmdb](https://github.com/thehhmdb) - thank you!)*
+- **🍎 Fix: MPS bicubic upscaling compatibility** - Added CPU fallback for bicubic+antialias interpolation on PyTorch versions before 2.8.0, resolving RGBA alpha upscaling errors on Apple Silicon
+- **⚡ Fix: Cross-platform histogram matching** - Replaced scatter_ operation with argsort+index_select for improved reliability across CUDA, ROCm, and MPS backends
+- **🧹 MPS: Remove sync overhead** - Reverted unnecessary `torch.mps.synchronize()` calls introduced in v2.5.21 for consistent behavior with CUDA pipeline
+
 **2025.12.12 - Version 2.5.21**
 
 - **🛠️ Fix: GGUF dequantization error on MPS** - Resolved shape mismatch error introduced in 2.5.20 by skipping GGUF quantized buffers in precision conversion - these must remain in packed format for on-the-fly dequantization during inference
