Bug fixes

• Patch for CVE-2025-66516 / CVE-2025-54988 in Apache Tika (critical severity). All versions of Apache Tika prior to version 3.2.2 contain a critical XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability.  This XXE vulnerability may be possible to exploit in DSpace if an attacker has submitter privileges. See #11678 for more details
• Fixed failing integration tests for CRIS8 functionality to ensure system stability and proper functionality validation
• Fixed typo in lucky-search route
• Fixed broken import of Person from external ORCID source
• Removed unnecessary ORCID initialization that caused startup logs to show cookie warnings; application now starts cleanly without irrelevant messages
• Fixed an issue where structured data was no longer being added due to a bug
• Resolved a potential script injection vulnerability during server-side rendering caused by metadata included in structured data. Metadata is now properly sanitized to prevent XSS attacks
• Fixed “show more” functionality
• Fixed Solr configuration of each core with updateLog details
• Fixed Google Scholar redirect
• Fixed an issue with the longtext rendering type not working properly
• Fixed bold text in the underfooter to normal
• Fixed duplicated notification on the end user agreement page
• Fixed a duplicate version notice badge on the item page
• Fixed grouping issue with DocumentCrosswalk for apa-cv.csl configuration
• Fixed the issue causing some SVG thumbnails to not show correctly on item pages
• Added support for authority in SAF import using UUID or provider IDs. Invalid authorities are logged as errors without stopping the process
• Fixed ORCID sync not working
• Fixed issue with overlapping UI components
• Fixed file upload issue with symbolic links in assetstore
• Fixed SAF Import concurrency issue: the working directory now uses a random UUID instead of the submitter UUID to avoid conflicts in parallel executions.
• Prevent the entire indexing process from failing in case of broken items
• Fixed the issue preventing registered DOIs from being updated
• Redirected old IIIF Manifest URLs coming from CRIS 5/6 to the News URLs
• Fixed the problem with the title visualization if the item has encoding characters like ><
• Added labels on filter badges
• Fixed the custom theme does not display the Most Viewed and Recent Additions sections - Donated by Kallox
• Fixed the issue with the language force parameter in the URL, which, when present, interfered with the language change from the UI
