Release Note for Neo4j 5.26.17 (21 November 2025)

Neo4j-Admin

  • Backup now deletes the downloaded store file after packaging it into a backup artefact, gradually freeing up space.
  • Fix to avoid potential issues in backup/dump commands when the target location is a cloud object store and the object to store exceeds 8GB.
  • Fixes bug in neo4j-admin database dump, where if the flag –overwrite-destination was used, the command could, under some circumstances, produce a corrupt dump file. This dump file would fail to be loaded by the neo4j-admin database load command with the error “Unknown frame descriptor.”

Security

  • Patch Jersey to 2.46 to resolve CVE-2025-12383.
  • Fixes CVE-2025-12738 by blocking users from setting a property to the existing value if they don’t have permission.
  • Bump google-cloud-storage 2.43.2 -> 2.60.0 to mitigate CVE-2025-55163.
