-   [#17416](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17416) [`493796b`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/493796b4c318b19985eccaac7a11aa7b787e1efe) Thanks [@iseraph-dev](https://github.com/iseraph-dev)! - Skips no-op pathname writes when normalizing SSR request URLs

-   [#17712](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17712) [`bd374b7`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/bd374b7507de8d706c845946fd847e76de6fc06b) Thanks [@fkatsuhiro](https://github.com/fkatsuhiro)! - Updates deprecation messages target from Astro 7 to 8

-   [#17719](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17719) [`dac1768`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/dac17688f691c6cecdff969aa48523bf17fc0657) Thanks [@astrobot-houston](https://github.com/astrobot-houston)! - Fixes session ID validation to reject non-UUID cookie values before using them as storage keys

-   [#17770](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17770) [`84eb7e7`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/84eb7e7db99573b80c339efe0392d959e7a9b6cf) Thanks [@astro-factory](https://github.com/apps/astro-factory)! - Fixes `--mode`, `--site`, `--base`, `--out-dir`, `--verbose`, `--silent`, and `--open` flags being silently dropped when using `astro dev --background` or `astro preview --background`

-   [#17713](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17713) [`d035290`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/d035290a14afac8834885b727327a7f44d3a3a48) Thanks [@wakqasahmed](https://github.com/wakqasahmed)! - Fixes `content-modules.mjs` not removing entries for deleted or renamed content files, which could cause Vite to attempt to resolve non-existent modules

    As part of this fix, `#moduleImports` is now fully rebuilt from `deferredRender` entries before every write, so a module import added only through the public `addModuleImport()` API without a corresponding `deferredRender` entry in the store will no longer be preserved across writes.

-   [#17743](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17743) [`adc750f`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/adc750fa27ea1d4767e30fc12e64a342fbebbd89) Thanks [@contactjawad](https://github.com/contactjawad)! - Fixes `Astro.preferredLocale` and `Astro.preferredLocaleList` ignoring `Accept-Language` quality values when they are absent or `0`. An entry without an explicit `q=` now correctly counts as quality `1.0` (per RFC 7231) and an entry with `q=0` is treated as not acceptable, so the highest-quality locale is selected regardless of header order.

-   [#17757](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17757) [`660991c`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/660991c820fbeb087b2f27361e6ebaeba8285358) Thanks [@astro-factory](https://github.com/apps/astro-factory)! - Fixes build errors showing wrong file location, missing line:col, and misleading hints when a plugin error (e.g. from MDX) is wrapped by Vite's build error

-   [#17783](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17783) [`60b14ff`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/60b14ffff5b7a66b06d9b12e72933ba9222f519d) Thanks [@matthewp](https://github.com/matthewp)! - Fixes a type error when passing an image from a content collection `image()` schema to a component or `<Image />`. The schema returned by `image()` was missing the `apng` format, so it no longer matched the type of an imported image.

-   [#17664](https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/17664) [`d483125`](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/d48312502ef33a32aef3f25b6b6035db8b38e189) Thanks [@astrobot-houston](https://github.com/astrobot-houston)! - Fixes an issue where Astro CSP support didn't correctly handle cases `"unsafe-inline"` resource. Now when `"unsafe-in
