<blockquote>
<p>This fixes an accessibility issue with the course reserves table in the OPAC (OPAC > Course reserves): "Table header text should not be empty".</p>
<p>Previously when responsive table controls were shown for the list of course reserves (a green "+" button is shown when the browser window is narrower and all the columns can't be displayed), there was no title for the column header with the controls.</p>

<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41587">41587</a> node audit identified several vulnerable node dependencies
Fix node dependency security vulnerabilities by upgrading packages and adding yarn resolutions. The following packages were updated:</p>
<p>Direct dependency upgrades:
- gulp-exec from ^4.0.0 to ^5.0.0 (fixes lodash.template HIGH vulnerability)
- lodash from ^4.17.12 to ^4.17.23 (MODERATE)
- minimatch from ^3.0.2 to ^3.1.4 (HIGH)</p>
<p>Yarn resolutions added to pin secure versions of transitive dependencies:
- form-data ^2.5.4 (CRITICAL)
- fast-xml-parser ^4.5.4 (CRITICAL)
- braces ^3.0.3 (HIGH)
- qs ^6.14.1 (HIGH)
- serialize-javascript ^7.0.3 (HIGH)
- micromatch ^4.0.8 (MODERATE)
- @cypress/request ^3.0.0 (MODERATE)
- js-yaml ^4.1.1 (MODERATE)
- undici ^6.23.0 (MODERATE)</p>
<p>This brings in upstream security fixes for critical, high, and moderate severity vulnerabilities reported by yarn audit. No functional changes are expected in Koha beyond those provided by the updated dependencies.</li>

<p>For those using the MySQL database. Starting from MySQL 5.7.31 and MySQL 8.0.20, mysqldump requires the PROCESS privilege to access tablespace metadata by default. Without this privilege, backup operations fail with permission errors.</p>

This performance update optimizes the C4::Reserves->FixPriority function. Previously, when adjusting holds on a record with many "lowest priority" requests, Koha would use recursive calls that repeatedly touched every hold on the record. This caused significant slowdowns (lag) when managing large hold queues.</li>
<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41849">41849</a> Cancelling filled hold from group does not cancel remaining pending holds from group or indicate that it's a hyperhold
This patch adds a new option to the modal displayed when checking in an item that is already waiting for a hold. If the hold is part of a group, the modal will offer the option to cancel all holds in the group rather than just the hold for the item that has been checked in.
A new REST API endpoint (POST /patrons/{patron_id}/hold_groups/{hold_group_id}/cancel) has been added to achieve this functionality. The new endpoint will:
-Cancel all holds within a specified hold group.
-Accept a cancellation reason
-Return a 204 on success
-Return a 404 when the hold group cannot found or does not exist.</p>
<p>The endpoint requires the 'reserveforothers' permission.</li>
<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41878">41878</a> No logs for grouping existing holds or ungrouping a hyperhold

<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41880">41880</a> Logs for moved holds don't indicate original bib number/item number
If a record-level hold is moved from one record to another (or an item-level hold is moved from one item to another), and no change was made to the hold before it was moved, there was no way to identify the record or item for the original hold (when HoldsLog is enabled).</p>
<p>With this change, both the old record (or item) number and new record number (or item) are now shown in the log viewer Info and Diff columns.</p>
<p>This is shown in the diff column as O for the old biblionumber (or itemnumber) and N for the new biblionumber (or itemnumber).</p>
<p>Example for the Diff column for a record-level hold that was moved:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Before (note "O":"11" and "N":11):
{"D":{"biblionumber":{"O":"11","N":11},"timestamp":{"O":"2026-02-28 02:39:44","N":"2026-02-28 02:42:02"}}}</p></li>
<li><p>After (note "N":11 and "O":262):
{"D":{"biblionumber":{"N":11,"O":262},"timestamp":{"O":"2026-02-28 02:54:57","N":"2026-02-28 02:55:18"}}}</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Example for the Diff column for a record-level hold that was moved:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Before (note that no biblionumbers or itemnumbers are shown):
{"D":{"timestamp":{"N":"2026-02-28 02:51:07","O":"2026-02-28 02:50:00"}}}</p></li>
<li><p>After (note that the new and old biblionumbers and itemnumbers are now shown):
{"D":{"biblionumber":{"O":139,"N":255},"itemnumber":{"N":563,"O":296},"timestamp":{"N":"2026-02-28 02:59:33","O":"2026-02-28 02:58:34"}}}</li>
<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42147">42147</a> Action logs for hold creation contain less data
Prior to version 25.05.05, the action logs for creating a hold used to show the full hold data in the "info" column, but starting in 25.05.05 the "info" column only shows the hold id, and other hold information is not logged when the hold is created. This restores other hold values to the hold creation action logs, so that libraries can easily look up the starting priority and options that were selected when the hold was first placed.</li>
<li><a href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42255">42255</a> Grouped holds counted inconsistently for circ rules
This fixes placing holds when group holds are enabled (DisplayAddHoldGroups system preference), so that a group hold only counts as one hold.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Previously, each hold in the hold group was counted as a hold. So if the "Holds allowed (total)" or "Maximum total holds allowed (count)" circulation and fine rules values were exceeded you would not be able to place additional holds and get a message "Too many holds: [patron name] can place of the requested holds for a maximum of XX total holds.".</p>
<p>Example: if the total holds allowed is set to 2 and a group hold was placed on two records, this was counted as 2 holds - placing an additional hold would result in the the "Too many holds" message.</li>
