 ### Fixes
-- [PR-372](https://github.com/newrelic/csec-java-agent/pull/372) **Repeat IAST Request Relay Commands**: Reconfigured logic to repeat IAST control commands until the endpoint is confirmed.

+### Note
+- The instrumentation for the module `com.newrelic.instrumentation.security.java-reflection` is disabled by default. This is due to its impact on CPU utilization, which can significantly increase when the module is active.
+- **Action Required**: To detect unsafe reflection vulnerabilities effectively, enable the `com.newrelic.instrumentation.security.java-reflection` module.
