 Changes with Apache 2.4.52
 
+  *) mod_md: Fix memory leak in case of failures to load the private key.
+     PR 65620 [ Filipe Casal <fi...@trailofbits.com> ]
+
+  *) mod_md: adding v2.4.8 with the following changes
+    - Added support for ACME External Account Binding (EAB).
+      Use the new directive `MDExternalAccountBinding` to provide the
+      server with the value for key identifier and hmac as provided by
+      your CA.
+      While working on some servers, EAB handling is not uniform
+      across CAs. First tests with a Sectigo Certificate Manager in
+      demo mode are successful. But ZeroSSL, for example, seems to
+      regard EAB values as a one-time-use-only thing, which makes them
+      fail if you create a seconde account or retry the creation of the
+      first account with the same EAB.
+    - The directive 'MDCertificateAuthority' now checks if its parameter
+      is a http/https url or one of a set of known names. Those are
+      'LetsEncrypt', 'LetsEncrypt-Test', 'Buypass' and 'Buypass-Test'
+      for now and they are not case-sensitive.
+      The default of LetsEncrypt is unchanged.
+    - `MDContactEmail` can now be specified inside a `<MDomain dnsname>`
+      section.
+    - Treating 401 HTTP status codes for orders like 403, since some ACME
+      servers seem to prefer that for accessing oders from other accounts.
+    - When retrieving certificate chains, try to read the repsonse even
+      if the HTTP Content-Type is unrecognized.
+    - Fixed a bug that reset the error counter of a certificate renewal
+      and prevented the increasing delays in further attempts.
+    - Fixed the renewal process giving up every time on an already existing
+      order with some invalid domains. Now, if such are seen in a previous
+      order, a new order is created for a clean start over again.
+      See <https://github.com/icing/mod_md/issues/268>
+    - Fixed a mixup in md-status handler when static certificate files
+      and renewal was configured at the same time.
+
+  *) mod_md: values for External Account Binding (EAB) can
+     now also be configured to be read from a separate JSON
+     file. This allows to keep server configuration permissions
+     world readable without exposing secrets.
+     [Stefan Eissing]
+
   *) mod_proxy_uwsgi: Remove duplicate slashes at the beginning of PATH_INFO.
