+## [v3.6.2] - 2026-04-12
+
+### Fixed
+
+- GraphQL error responses now correctly return 400 status instead of always 200
+- OpenAPI docs UI now respects custom `openapi_route` instead of hardcoding `/schema.yml`
+- `before_requests` default type mismatch that could crash routes called outside the router
+- Blocking synchronous file I/O in `Response.stream_file()` — now uses async I/O via anyio
+- Memory leak in rate limiter (empty bucket keys never cleaned up)
+- Race condition in rate limiter `check()` — added thread-safe locking
+- WSGI fallback catching all `TypeError`s instead of just call-signature mismatches
+- Pydantic request/response model validation crashing on non-dict bodies
+- Test assertions that could never fail (`or True`, `< 500` patterns)
+- `CaseInsensitiveDict` missing `__delitem__`, `pop`, and `setdefault` overrides
+- `assert` used for input validation in OpenAPI extension (stripped by `python -O`)
+- Potential XSS in GraphiQL template endpoint injection
+- Dead `or ""` in media format detection logic
+
+### Changed
+

+
+### Removed

+- Unused Node.js setup step from CI test workflow
