RabbitMQ `3.12.3` is a maintenance release in the `3.12.x` [release series](https://www.rabbitmq.com/versions.html).
Please refer to the upgrade section from the [3.12.0 release notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.12.0)
if upgrading from a version prior to 3.12.0.
This release requires Erlang 25 and supports Erlang versions up to `26.0.x`.
[RabbitMQ and Erlang/OTP Compatibility Matrix](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html) has more details on
Erlang version requirements for RabbitMQ.
### Minimum Supported Erlang Version
As of 3.12.0, RabbitMQ requires Erlang 25. Nodes **will fail to start** on older Erlang releases.
Users upgrading from 3.11.x (or older releases) on Erlang 25 to 3.12.x on Erlang 26
(both RabbitMQ *and* Erlang are upgraded at the same time) **must** consult
the [v3.12.0 release notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.12.0) first.
## Changes Worth Mentioning
Release notes can be found on GitHub at [rabbitmq-server/release-notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/tree/v3.12.x/release-notes).
### Core Server
#### Bug Fixes
* Certain diagnostics operations during rolling upgrades from 3.10 to 3.11 could fail
if the `listener_records_in_ets` feature flag was enabled in the middle of the upgrade.
Contributed by @gomoripeti (CloudAMQP).
GitHub issue: [#8984](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/8984)
* On Windows, PowerShell will no longer be used as a fallback for `handle.exe`
for computing how many file and socket handles a node uses.
If a user does not have `handle.exe` installed in the `PATH` of their Windows system,
a message will be logged once, and then the total handles being used will be set to 0.
PowerShell ended up being a CPU-intensive alternative that's not worth the gains
for many installations.
GitHub issue: [#8700](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/8700)
* Node maintenance state was not replicated to all nodes, even though it was accessible
from any node (and for any node).
GitHub issue: [#9005](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/9005)
### CLI Tools
#### Enhacements
* Some warnings were emitted even when `--formatter` was set to `json`.
GitHub issue: [#8912](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/8912)
### MQTT Plugin
#### Bug Fixes
* MQTT connections could run into an exception when a queue it consumed from was temporarily
unavailable (e.g. was undergoing a leader election).
GitHub issue: [#9040](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/9040)
#### Enhancements
* When QoS 0 consumers consistently do not keep up with publishers, some messages will be dropped
to avoid runaway resource usage.
Now the number of dropped messages will be reflected in the dropped message metric,
[together with unroutable messages](https://www.rabbitmq.com/reliability.html#routing).
GitHub issue: [#9080](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/9080)
### HTTP AuthN/AuthZ Backend Plugin
#### Bug Fixes
* AMQP 1.0 client connections were refused with this plugin.
GitHub issue: [#9043](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/9043)
### LDAP AuthN/AuthZ Backend Plugin
#### Bug Fixes
* AMQP 1.0 client connections were refused with this plugin.
GitHub issue: [#9043](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/9043)
## Dependency Upgrades
* `osiris` was upgraded to [`1.6.3`](https://github.com/rabbitmq/osiris/tags)
