+# [2.6.2] - 2025-09-08
+
+## 🐛 Fixes
+
+### Connection shutdown sometimes fails during hot-reload ([PR #8169](https://github.com/apollographql/router/pull/8169))
+
+A race condition in connection shutdown during a hot reload event occasionally left some connections in an active state instead of entering terminating state. This could cause out-of-memory errors over time as multiple pipelines remained active.
+
+Connections that open during shutdown now immediately terminate.
