Geth v1.8.25 is a tiny hotfix on top of the recently released v1.8.24. During back-porting PRs into v1.8.24, one was merged incorrectly and resulted disabling 2 CLI flags (--rpccorsdomain and --rpcvhosts). You can see the fix in #19416. If you are not using these flag, you're fine to remain on the v1.8.24 release.

To recap our original notes, Geth v1.8.24 v1.8.25 is a small maintenance release aiming to be the final version of the 1.8.x family before rolling out our next major milestone (v1.9.0). As the previous release, v1.8.24 v1.8.25 only back-ports stability fixes. A grab bag of the changes included are:

  • Add --rpc.gascap to limit the gas eth_call and eth_estimateGas may use.
  • Baked in the Rinkeby Petersburg fork block 4321234 (~4th May, 2019).
  • Updated light client CHTs for quicker sync times on all built-in networks.
  • Fixes the builders and macos file descriptors if using with Go 1.12+.
  • Fixes a log filtering issue that didn't report reorged EVM events.
  • Fixes a couple of networking issues in the DHT and eth.
  • Memory optimizations around timestamp handling.

For a full rundown of the changes please consult the originally Geth 1.8.24 back-port pull request.

Geth binaries and mobile libraries are available on the Geth download page.
