 # Changelog - 2026
 
+## 24.1.1 - unreleased
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- Fix `forwarded_allow_ips` and `proxy_allow_ips` to remain as strings for backward
+  compatibility with external tools like uvicorn. Network validation now uses strict
+  mode to detect invalid CIDR notation (e.g., `192.168.1.1/24` where host bits are set)
+  ([#3458](https://github.com/benoitc/gunicorn/issues/3458),
+  [PR #3459](https://github.com/benoitc/gunicorn/pull/3459))
