## What's Changed ### Security Fixes **⚠️ This update contains important security fixes. Please upgrade as soon as possible**. • Notes had the ability to read local files when viewed in the editor. (Thanks to @caleblee789 for the report) • The "Open image" context menu action in the editor did not validate the file's extension, which allowed decks to execute dangerous files on some systems. (Thanks to @lappas-m for the report) ### Add-on Compatibility Note The following legacy modules have been removed：`anki.importing` and `anki.exporting`. See the [docs](https://anki.mintlify.app/addons/the-anki-module) for alternatives. _Some compatibility wrappers were added but they were only tested with AnkiConnect add-on and will be removed in the future._ ### Notable Changes • Fix audio playback in macOS 27 by @abdnh in https://github.com/ankitects/anki/pull/5363 • Fix audio not being played automatically when attached in the editor by @JaksonSouza in https://github.com/ankitects/anki/pull/5320 • Recompute FSRS data after changing deck by @user1823 in https://github.com/ankitects/anki/pull/5339 • Update FSRS to [6.6.2](https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/fsrs-rs/releases/tag/v6.6.2) by @asukaminato0721 in https://github.com/ankitects/anki/pull/5494 • Improve performance of reviewer initialization by lazy-loading MathJax by @BrayanDSO and @iamllama in https://github.com/ankitects/anki/pull/5171 • Remove Python-based legacy importing/exporting handling by @chrislongros in…

What's Changed Compatibility The Linux package now requires glibc 2.28+ (2019 Ubuntu/Fedora, and 2021 Debian).New Features FSRS FSRS has received significant changes in this release, and should be even more efficient. It is recommended that you optimize your presets after updating.To avoid errors on older clients, updated parameters will only be visible to Anki releases from 24.11 on. Older clients will continue to work, but may give you different scheduling results when reviews are done on them.By @L-M-Sherlock in Other new features: - Add FSRS simulator to deck options by @L-M-Sherlock in #3257 - Add forgetting curve to card info by @L-M-Sherlock in #3437 - Let FSRS control short term schedule when no (re)learning steps are set. This is experimental. By @L-M-Sherlock in #3375 and #3505 and #3367 Scheduling - Load balancing: within your fuzz range, Anki will now try to pick days that have fewer reviews waiting. By @jakeprobst in - Easy days: you can now tell Anki to try avoid certain days of the week. By @L-M-Sherlock in #3442 - Decks can now be sorted by descending retrievability. Simulations have shown this is a better choice when you have a backlog, and this sort order is likely to become the default in the future. Stats/Graphs - Add true retention stats by @L-M-Sherlock in #3425 - Estimated total knowledge by note, and daily load by @L-M-Sherlock in #3507 Other Features - Add "open image" option to editor by @user1823 in #3431 - Add an option to show image from editor…
