Full Release Notes

## Fixes and improvements

General

* fix unexpected behavior of authInternalUsers or authHTTPExclude (https://github.com/bluenviron/mediamtx/issues/3316). when some subfields of authInternalUsers or authHTTPExclude were not set explicitly in the configuration file, default values were used in their place. This is caused by a strange behavior of Go (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/21092)
