The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 5.2.4. This is a maintenance release for the 5.2 branch that fixes several community reported issues and regressions.

Bugfixes

You can expect the following changes in 5.2.4. See the changelog
for every commit.

• Improves foreign key reflection with sqlite to resolve gaps between functionality offered in migrations.
• Fixed a regression in EntityTrait::isModified().
• Fixed PHP warnings being emit when rendering a development error page for MissingActionException.
• Fixed regressions that broke documented custom message loaders for I18n.
• CLI options are now coerced to string to avoid type errors with ConsoleInputOption: constructor.
• Fixed regression with App.base configuration not being used.
• Added the clearUsesFlushDb option to RedisEngine. When enabled this allows clear() and clearGroup() to use FLUSHDB. This option should be used with caution as it will drop all keys in the current redis database.
• Primary key reflection in SQLServer now retains the primary key name to support primary key operations in migrations.
• Improved support for mockery, and increased usage of mockery in cakephp's tests.
• Replaced PHPUnitConsecutiveTrait::withConsecutive() with mockery's methods.
