+<!-- Required. Third-party dependencies encompass tools (GoLang, Helm etc.), databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB etc.) and external software libraries. This section should be a table that presents the third-party dependencies and tools compatible with the release. Compatible is used in the sense of those versions tested with the releases. Such information assists customers considering upgrading to a specific release.
+Additionally, a disclaimer statement was added below the table, for customers to check that the third-party dependency they decide to install remains in support.
+An example is given below for illustrative purposes only. Tested Versions and Compatible Versions information will require discussion with relevant squads and QA. -->
+
+| Third Party Dependency                                     | Tested Versions        | Compatible Versions    | Comments |
+| ---------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | ---------------------- | -------- |

+
+Given the time difference between your upgrade and the release of this version, we recommend customers verify the ongoing support of third-party dependencies they install, as their status may have changed since the release.
+
+#### Deprecations
+We have deprecated the obsolescent `http_server_options.prefer_server_ciphers` configuration option. This legacy control no longer has any effect on the underlying library and users are advised to remove this setting from their configurations.
+
+#### Upgrade Instructions
+If you are upgrading to 5.3.9, please follow the detailed [upgrade instructions](#upgrading-tyk).
+
+#### Downloads

+
+#### Changelog {#Changelog-v5.3.9}
+<!-- Required. The change log should include the following ordered set of sections below that briefly summarise the features, updates and fixed issues of the release.
+Here it is important to explain the benefit of each changelog item. As mentioned by James in a previous Slack message (https://tyktech.slack.com/archives/C044R3ZTN6L/p1686812207060839?thread_ts=1686762128.651249&cid=C044R3ZTN6L):
+"...it is important to document the customer impact for the work delivered, so we can share it with prospects/install base. For example:
+"New Chart delivers x and y benefit to a and b customer use cases. The business impact for them will be this and that" -->
+
+##### Fixed
+<!-- This section should be a bullet point list of new features. Explain:

+
+#### Changelog {#Changelog-v5.3.9}
+
+##### Fixed
+
+<ul>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Incomplete traffic logs generated if custom response plugin adjusts the payload length</summary>
+
+Resolved an issue where the response body could be only partially recorded in the traffic log if a custom response plugin modified the payload. This was due to Tyk using the original, rather than the modified, content-length of the response when identifying the data to include in the traffic log.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Fixed OAuth client creation issue for custom plugin APIs in multi-data plane deployments</summary>
+
+Fixed a bug that prevented the control plane Gateway from loading APIs that use custom plugin bundles. The control plane Gateway is used to register OAuth clients and generate access tokens so this could result in an API being loaded to the data plane Gateways but clients unable to obtain access tokens. This issue was introduced in v5.3.1 as a side-effect of a change to address a potential security issue where APIs could be loaded without their custom plugins.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Accurate debug logging restored for middleware</summary>
+
+Addressed an issue where shared loggers caused debug logs to misidentify the middleware source, complicating debugging. Log entries now correctly indicate which middleware generated the log, ensuring clearer and more reliable diagnostics
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Fixed Payload Issue with Transfer-Encoding: chunked Header</summary>
+
+Resolved an issue where APIs using the Transfer-Encoding: chunked header alongside URL Rewrite or Validate Request middleware would lose the response payload body. The payload now processes correctly, ensuring seamless functionality regardless of header configuration.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>API Keys remain active after all linked partitioned policies are deleted</summary>
+
+Resolved an issue where API access keys remained valid even if all associated policies were deleted. The Gateway now attempts to apply all linked policies to the key when it is presented with a request. Warning logs are generated if any policies cannot be applied (for example, if they are missing). If no linked policy can be applied, the Gateway will reject the key to ensure no unauthorized access.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Resolved API routing issue with trailing slashes and overlapping listen paths</summary>
+
+Fixed a routing issue that caused incorrect API matching when dealing with APIs that lacked a trailing slash, used custom domains, or had similar listen path patterns. Previously, the router prioritized APIs with longer subdomains and shorter listen paths, leading to incorrect matches when listen paths shared prefixes. This fix ensures accurate API matching, even when subdomains and listen paths overlap.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Improved Stability for APIs with Malformed Listen Paths</summary>
+
+Fixed an issue where a malformed listen path could cause the Gateway to crash. Now, such listen paths are properly validated, and if validation fails, an error is logged, and the API is skipped—preventing Gateway instability.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Resolved Variable Input Handling for Custom Scalars in GraphQL Queries</summary>
+
+Fixed an issue where GraphQL queries using variables for custom scalar types, such as UUID, failed due to incorrect input handling. Previously, the query would return an error when a variable was used but worked when the value was directly embedded in the query. This update ensures that variables for custom scalar types are correctly inferred and processed, enabling seamless query execution.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Fixed Gateway panic and SSE streaming issue with OpenTelemetry</summary>
+
+Resolved a bug that prevented upstream server-sent events (SSE) from being sent when OpenTelemetry was enabled, and fixed a gateway panic that occurred when detailed recording was active while SSE was in use. This ensures stable SSE streaming in configurations with OpenTelemetry.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Fixed an issue where OAuth 2.0 access tokens would not be issued if the data plane was disconnected from the control plane</summary>
+
+OAuth 2.0 access tokens can now be issued even when data plane gateways are disconnected from the control plane. This is achieved by saving OAuth clients locally within the data plane when they are pulled from RPC.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Tyk Now Supports RSA-PSS Signed JWTs</summary>
+
+Tyk now supports RSA-PSS signed JWTs (PS256, PS384, PS512), enhancing security while maintaining backward compatibility with RS256. No configuration changes are needed—just use RSA public keys, and Tyk will validate both algorithms seamlessly.
+</details>
+</li>
+<li>
+<details>
+<summary>Request size limit middleware would block any request without a payload (for example GET, DELETE)</summary>
+
+Resolved a problem in the request size limit middleware that caused GET and DELETE requests to fail validation.The middleware incorrectly expected a request body (payload) for these methods and blocked them when none was present.
+</details>
+</li>
+</ul>
