 # Changelog
 
+## v0.19.0
+
+For users of legacy client (tuf/client/) this is purely a security fix release
+with no API or functionality changes. For ngclient and Metadata API, some API
+changes are included.
+
+All users are advised to upgrade.
+
+### Fixed
+* GHSA-wjw6-2cqr-j4qr: Fix client side issue in both legacy client (tuf.client)
+  and ngclient (tuf.ngclient) where a malicious repository could trick client
+  to overwrite files outside the client metadata store during a metadata
+  update. The fix includes percent-encoding the metadata rolename before using
+  it as part of a filename
+  https://github.com/theupdateframework/python-tuf/security/advisories/GHSA-wjw6-2cqr-j4qr
+* ngclient: Do not use urljoin to form metadata URL (included in
+  GHSA-wjw6-2cqr-j4qr)
+* ngclient: Persist metadata safely (#1574)
+* ngclient: Handle timeout on session.get() (#1588)
+
+### Added

+* tests: ngclient test improvements (#1564, #1569, #1587)
+* Metadata API: Add TargetFile.from_file() (#1521)
