 - Update help output for _cat ([#14722](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/pull/14722))
 - Fix bulk upsert ignores the default_pipeline and final_pipeline when auto-created index matches the index template ([#12891](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/pull/12891))
 - Fix NPE in ReplicaShardAllocator ([#14385](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/pull/14385))
+- Use circuit breaker in InternalHistogram when adding empty buckets ([#14754](https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/pull/14754))
