Summary

This release features a bugfix for some themes that use an unusual “stringable object” mechanism when loading template file paths that broke in the 6.9.2 security release. Although this is is not an officially supported approach to loading template files in WordPress (the template_include filter only accepts a string), it nevertheless caused some sites to break so the team have decided to address this in a fast follow 6.9.3 release. Users using affected themes should update to 6.9.3 to restore the front end of their site to an operational state.

As a reminder, the earlier 6.9.2 version was a security release, and only the most recent version of WordPress is actively supported.
