✓ Correctness

This is a straightforward patch version bump from 1.41.2 to 1.41.3. The change is a single-line modification to the __version__ string. The DEFAULT_RC_VERSION correctly derives from __version__ via f-string, so it will automatically update. No correctness issues found.

✓ Security Reliability

This is a straightforward patch version bump from 1.41.2 to 1.41.3. The change is limited to a single string literal in __init__.py. There are no security or reliability concerns — no new logic, no input handling, no dependency changes, and no risk of injection or resource issues.

✓ Test Coverage

This diff is a one-line version bump from 1.41.2 to 1.41.3 in python/semantic_kernel/init.py. There is no behavioral change introduced, and the project has no existing tests that assert on the version value. No new test coverage is needed for a patch version increment.

✓ Design Approach

The version bump itself is not the problem; the design issue is that this file also defines DEFAULT_RC_VERSION as f"{__version__}-rc9", and the release_candidate decorator uses that default whenever callers omit an explicit RC version. As a result, changing only __version__ for a stable patch release silently rewrites release-candidate metadata across the package to 1.41.3-rc9, which couples stable package versioning to prerelease labeling in a fragile way.
