The XRP Ledger Foundation has announced XRPL Software version 3.1.2, an update to the rippled server that addresses an edge-case bug capable of causing outages on public-facing nodes. The new release follows February's emergency 3.1.1 patch for the Batch amendment issue, while a revised BatchV1_1 amendment and a lending protocol proposal continue to move through the network's voting process.
