 ## Other
 
+- Update Cargo dependencies to resolve current RustSec advisories, see #3861 (@TyceHerrman)
 - Add instructions for removing fish help abbreviations to README, see #3655 (@claw-explorer). Closes #3536
 - Add .NET slnx extension, see #3682 (@ltrzesniewski)
 
 ## Features
 
+- Add a `--sanitize=<auto|always|never>` flag for safe display of untrusted input. It implies `--strip-ansi` at the same value and additionally substitutes terminal-active control bytes (cursor moves, charset switches, beep, etc.) and Unicode bidi / zero-width formatting characters with the Unicode replacement character (U+FFFD). Mitigates Trojan-Source-style spoofing (CVE-2021-42574). See #3729 (@curious-rabbit)
 - Map justfile, Justfile, .justfile, and *.justfile to Makefile syntax highlighting, see #3623 (@zachvalenta)
 - Preserve `--diff` change markers and snip separators when `--plain` is set. Closes #3630, see #3643 (@mvanhorn)
 - Added support for `hidden_file_extensions` from `.sublime-syntax` files, see #3613 (@Matei02355)
@@ -22,6 +24,9 @@
 - Syntax highlighting for Python files using uv as script runner in shebang #3689 (@janlarres)
 
 ## Bugfixes
+- Fix `--list-languages` respecting `--paging=never`, see #3828 (@cyphercodes)
+- Fix `--sanitize` passing through the bidi control characters U+200E, U+200F and U+061C, see #3862 (@lenamonj)
+- `--strip-ansi`: also strip 8-bit C1 introducers (U+0090, U+0098, U+009B, U+009D, U+009E, U+009F) and DCS/SOS/PM/APC sequence bodies, which previously passed through. See #3729 (@curious-rabbit)
 - Fix `--ignored-suffix` not falling back to first-line/shebang detection when the ignored suffix is also a registered extension (e.g. `--ignored-suffix .txt` on a shebang script), see #2745 and #3816 (@adnrivera)
 - Fix `capacity overflow` panic when printing a snip separator at `--terminal-width=1` with multiple line ranges. Closes #3803, see #3804 (@leeewee)
 - Pass `--no-paging` to `bat` invocations inside the bash / zsh / fish / PowerShell shell completion scripts so that shell-level pager wiring (e.g. `LESSOPEN='|-bat -f -pp %s'`) cannot inject ANSI escape sequences into the completion candidates. Closes #3760 (@mvanhorn)
