+
+### Performance Improvements
+
+* Improved IP validation performance for `masterKeyIPs`, `maintenanceKeyIPs` ([#8510](https://github.com/parse-community/parse-server/issues/8510)) ([b87daba](https://github.com/parse-community/parse-server/commit/b87daba0671a1b0b7b8d63bc671d665c91a04522))
+
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* The Parse Server option `allowClientClassCreation` defaults to `false`. ([29624e0](29624e0))
+* A request using the master key will now be rejected as unauthorized if the IP from which the request originates is not set in the Parse Server option `masterKeyIps`, even if the request does not require the master key permission, for example for a public object in a public class class. ([a7b5b38](a7b5b38))
+* Node process now exits with code 1 on uncaught exceptions, enabling custom handlers that were blocked by Parse Server's default behavior of re-throwing errors. This change may lead to automatic process restarts by the environment, unlike before. ([70c280c](70c280c))
+* Authentication adapters are disabled by default; to use an authentication adapter it needs to be explicitly enabled in the Parse Server authentication adapter option `auth.<provider>.enabled: true` ([0cf58eb](0cf58eb))
+* Parse Server option `allowExpiredAuthDataToken` defaults to `false`; a 3rd party authentication token will be validated every time the user tries to log in and the login will fail if the token has expired; the effect of this change may differ for different authentication adapters, depending on the token lifetime and the token refresh logic of the adapter ([e29845f](e29845f))
+* LiveQuery `fields` option is renamed to `keys` ([38983e8](38983e8))
+* Cloud Code file trigger syntax has been aligned with object trigger syntax, for example `Parse.Cloud.beforeDeleteFile'` has been changed to `Parse.Cloud.beforeDelete(Parse.File, (request) => {})'` ([4e6a375](4e6a375))
+* Removes support for Node 14 and 16 ([ced4872](ced4872))
+* Removes support for Postgres 11 and 12 ([99489b2](99489b2))
+* The `Parse.User` passed as argument if `verifyUserEmails` is set to a function is renamed from `user` to `object` for consistency with invocations of `verifyUserEmails` on signup or login; the user object is not a plain JavaScript object anymore but an instance of `Parse.User` ([8adcbee](8adcbee))
+* `Parse.Session.current()` no longer throws an error if the session token is expired, but instead returns the session token with its expiration date to allow checking its validity ([f9dde4a](f9dde4a))
+* `Parse.Query` no longer supports the BSON type `code`; although this feature was never officially documented, its removal is announced as a breaking change to protect deployments where it might be in use. ([3de8494](3de8494))
