…tensions is not set - This is a behaviour change on how we process the allowed_extensions role parameter when it does not contain a value. The previous handling allowed a client to override and specify any extension they requested. - We now require a role to explicitly set this behaviour by setting the parameter to a '*' value which matches the behaviour of other keys such as allowed_users within the role. - No migration of existing roles is provided either, so operators if they truly want this behaviour will need to update existing roles appropriately.

I think this has to be a single line, though I'm not positive.

I believe it's okay as 11775.txt (https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/blob/main/changelog/11775.txt) is multiple lines and seems to have generated ok: https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#180
