+Patch release restoring Symfony 7.4 CI matrix compatibility and hardening demo smoke on GitHub Actions.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Test support user implements `UserInterface::eraseCredentials()` so PHPUnit runs on Symfony 7.4 (the method was removed from the interface in Symfony 8)
+- Demo smoke retries longer and falls back to in-container HTTP checks when host port mapping is slow on CI runners
