 See the [releases page](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases) for the relevant changes to the CodeQL CLI and language packs.
 
+## 3.32.4 - 20 Feb 2026
+
+- Update default CodeQL bundle version to [2.24.2](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.24.2). [#3493](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3493)
+- Added an experimental change which improves how certificates are generated for the authentication proxy that is used by the CodeQL Action in Default Setup when [private package registries are configured](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries). This is expected to generate more widely compatible certificates and should have no impact on analyses which are working correctly already. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in February. [#3473](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3473)
+- When the CodeQL Action is run [with debugging enabled in Default Setup](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/scan-code-for-vulnerabilities/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-analysis-errors/logs-not-detailed-enough#creating-codeql-debugging-artifacts-for-codeql-default-setup) and [private package registries are configured](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries), the "Setup proxy for registries" step will output additional diagnostic information that can be used for troubleshooting. [#3486](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3486)
+- Added a setting which allows the CodeQL Action to enable network debugging for Java programs. This will help GitHub staff support customers with troubleshooting issues in GitHub-managed CodeQL workflows, such as Default Setup. This setting can only be enabled by GitHub staff. [#3485](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3485)
+- Added a setting which enables GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to use a [nightly CodeQL CLI release](https://github.com/dsp-testing/codeql-cli-nightlies) instead of the latest, stable release that is used by default. This will help GitHub staff support customers whose analyses for a given repository or organization require early access to a change in an upcoming CodeQL CLI release. This setting can only be enabled by GitHub staff. [#3484](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3484)
+
 ## 3.32.3 - 13 Feb 2026
 
 - Added experimental support for testing connections to [private package registries](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries). This feature is not currently enabled for any analysis. In the future, it may be enabled by default for Default Setup. [#3466](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3466)
