+#### <a id="vttablet-external-decompressor-manifest"/>External Decompressor No Longer Read from Backup MANIFEST by Default</a>
+
+The external decompressor command stored in a backup's `MANIFEST` file is no longer used at restore time by default. Previously, when no `--external-decompressor` flag was provided, VTTablet would fall back to the command specified in the `MANIFEST`. This posed a security risk: an attacker with write access to backup storage could modify the `MANIFEST` to execute arbitrary commands on the tablet.
+
+Starting in v24, the `MANIFEST`-based decompressor is ignored unless you explicitly opt in with the new `--external-decompressor-use-manifest` flag. If you rely on this behavior, add the flag to your VTTablet configuration, but be aware of the security implications.

+See [#19460](https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/pull/19460) for details.

 This improvement makes it easier to identify and debug issues with specific tablets when discovery operations fail.
 
+#### <a id="vtorc-ordered-recovery-semi-sync"/>Ordered Recovery Execution and Semi-Sync Rollout</a>
+
+VTOrc now executes recoveries per-shard with defined ordering, rather than per-tablet in isolation. Problems that have ordering dependencies (e.g., semi-sync configuration) are executed serially first, while independent problems are executed concurrently. This ensures that dependent recoveries happen in the correct sequence within a shard.
+
+The main user-facing improvement is to semi-sync rollouts: VTOrc now ensures replicas have semi-sync enabled before updating the primary. Previously, enabling semi-sync on the primary before enough replicas were ready could stall writes while the primary waited for semi-sync acknowledgements that no replica was prepared to send.

 The `DiscoverInstanceTimings` metric has been removed from VTOrc in v24. This metric was deprecated in v23.
