## Security advisory

A security review identified a vulnerability in the "pyodide" sandboxing method that is available in Grist. You can check if you are affected in the sandboxing section of the Admin Panel of your instance. If you see "gvisor" there, then you are not affected.If you see "pyodide", then it is important to update to this version of Grist or later.

## Notable fixes and improvements

* New intro screen for Access Rules:
  * A document without rules now shows an intro screen with an "Enable Access Rules" button:
    * On confirming, it creates the initial recommended rules: namely, disable structure permission for non-owners
  * There is also a "Disable Access Rules" button that's shown when there are no custom rules
* Restrict users who can view all data from viewing Access Rules by default:
  * If permission to view Access Rules is enabled, then there is a new option: to restrict non-owners from downloading or copying the document
  * This restriction is added by default when permission to view Access Rules is given
  * Granting permission to view Access Rules and removing the restriction on downloading/copying the document approximates the previous behavior
* Redesigned authentication section in Admin Panel for configuring user authentication in self-managed Grist
* Org and workspace modifications are now limited to users with owner permissions
* Document owners can now resolve and reopen comment threads, and delete comments
* Fixes for some frontend memory leaks
* Fixes for some styling issues when printing a document
