 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixed ###
+- The poststart hooks are now executed after starting the user-specified
+  process, fixing a runtime-spec conformance issue. (#4347, #5186)
+
+## [1.5.0-rc.3] - 2026-06-13
+
+> The best way to get a drink out of a Vogon is to stick your finger down his
+> throat.
+
+### Security ###
+
+This release includes a fix for the following low-severity security issue:
+
+- [CVE-2026-41579][] allowed a malicious image with a `/dev` symlink to have
+  limited write access to the host filesystem in ways that our analysis
+  indicates was too limited to be problematic in practice. This bug was very
+  similar to those fixed in [CVE-2025-31133][], [CVE-2025-52565][],
+  [CVE-2025-31133][] and was simply missed at the time when we hardened the
+  rootfs preparation code. We have conducted a deeper audit and not found any
+  other problematic cases.

+
+### libcontainer API ###
+- The `cmsg` helpers from `github.com/opencontainers/runc/libcontainer/utils`
+  have been moved to an internal package. We have included wrapper functions
+  but they will be removed in runc 1.6. (#5227, #5231)
+- Added `//go:fix inline` to ease migration for `libcontainer/devices` symbols
+  that are deprecated and scheduled for removal in runc 1.6. (#5223, #5225)
+
+### Fixed ###
+- `runc list` now correctly handles non-existent `--root` arguments. (#5297,
+  #5301)
+- Various integration test improvements. (#5222, #5226, #5232, #5239, #5230,
+  #5236, #5246, #5248, #5279, #5283, #5269, #5286, #5295, #5303)
+
+### Changed ###
+- When masking directories with `maskPaths`, runc will now reuse a single
+  `tmpfs` instance (which is not writable) to reduce the number `tmpfs`
+  superblocks that need to be reaped when containers die (in particular,
+  Kubernetes applies masks to per-CPU sysfs directories which get expensive
+  quickly). (#5275, #5280)
+
+## [1.4.3] - 2026-06-13
+
+> The best way to irritate him is to feed his grandmother to the Ravenous
+> Bugblatter Beast of Traal.

   be used to add build tags and/or remove existing build tags (when a tag is
-  prefixed with `-`). (#5171)

+### Changed ###
+- runc now requires Go 1.25+ to build. (#5211, #5205)
+- libcontainer now pre-opens container root filesystem and uses the file
+  descriptor (rather than the path) for most operations related to container
+  root during container start. (#5204, #5190)
 
 ### Deprecated ###
 - `EXTRA_BUILDTAGS` make variable is deprecated in favor of `RUNC_BUILDTAGS`
-  and will be removed in runc 1.6. (#5171)
