About Prometheus

Prometheus enters 3.12 RC while running a coordinated security backport across the 3.5 LTS line.

Prometheus published a 3.12.0 release candidate with PromQL and Service Discovery additions, TSDB performance work, and security fixes for a remote-write denial-of-service and a STAC secret leak. In the same window, 3.11.3 and 3.5.3 shipped coordinated security fixes for snappy decoding, AzureAD client_secret handling, and an old-UI XSS, and the prior 3.11.2/3.5.2 pair fixed a metric-name XSS in the web UI. The project is clearly maintaining 3.5 as a long-term branch alongside the active 3.x line.
