 - Registry mappings of a deploy daemon (`occ app_api:daemon:registry:add`) are applied by the Kubernetes backend too; before, ExApp images were always taken from the registry in `info.xml`. A `local` mapping sets `imagePullPolicy: Never` with HaRP newer than 0.4.5, so the image must be present on every node. #1046
 - Updating a deploy daemon that does not exist answers `success: false` instead of a server error. #1082
+- The ExApp proxy also refuses `.` path segments and `..` segments followed by `;`, `%3F` or `%23`. #1163
