-## [12.10.1] Stable Release
+## [12.10.2] Hotfix & Stable Release
+### Fixed issues
+- **Address a hostname validation vulnerability by securely parsing certificate common names.**
+  **What was fixed**: Secure hostname validation is enforced by replacing the vulnerable CN parsing logic in SQLServerCertificateUtils.java, preventing spoofing attacks.
+  **Who benefits**:  All users of the SQL Server JDBC driver, especially those relying on TLS for secure connections, benefit from improved certificate validation.
+
+
+## [12.10.1] Hotfix & Stable Release
 ### Fixed issues
 - Make ibm security module optional [#2679] (https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-jdbc/pull/2679)
 - Invalidate existing enclave session during connection (re)connect [#2680] (https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-jdbc/pull/2680)
