PSMDB-1172: Fixed CVE-2022-3602 by updating the libssl for Ubuntu 22.04 tarballs
PSMDB-1134: Prevent the server crash by ensuring the backup cursor is closed before the server shutdown
PSMDB-1130: Improve handling of the missing encryption key during KMIP key rotation
PSMDB-1129: Prevent Percona Server for MongoDB from starting if the configured encryption key doesn’t match the one used for data encryption
