Summary for 2025-09: Delivered essential documentation update to known issues for nRF Connect SDK (DRGN-24784) to improve issue visibility, triage efficiency, and reliability; no code changes this month. The new known issue entry describes a potential disconnection when LE Long Term Key Request Reply could overwrite the session key for an active, encrypted peripheral link. This reduces support incidents and accelerates remediation for developers. Commitment to code/documentation hygiene was demonstrated through a signed-off doc change in the nrfconnect/sdk-nrf repository (commit ad6fa26160d030351432d91ddf9ca7a9837bfd30).
