Open Policy Agent (OPA) release stream notes. v1.16.1 is a patch that fixes a regression in the plugin manager that could cause the OPA service to hang on shutdown (fix from PR #8590); v1.16.0 contained the regression and users are advised to go directly to v1.16.1. Multiple releases also include Go toolchain and dependency updates to address vulnerabilities (v1.15.2 bumps Go to 1.26.2; v1.13.2 bumps Go to 1.25.7 and references GO-2026-4337).
