Nginx has formed the main branch nginx 1.25.5, in which the development of new opportunities continues. In a parallel supported stable branch 1.24.x, only changes are made associated with the elimination of serious errors and vulnerabilities.

- In the directive listen the stream module implemented the parameters “Deferd” (includes the delayed aciscept), “Accept_Filter” (filter of incoming connections used before calling the ACCEPT function) and “setfib” (task of the routing table).
