 ### Bug Fixes
 
+* (types/mempool) [#21494](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21494) `GetSigners` function in priority nonce mempool returns an slide of the correct length.
 * (x/consensus) [#21493](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21493) Fix regression that prevented to upgrade to > v0.50.7 without consensus version params.
 * (baseapp) [#21256](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21256) Halt height will not commit the block indicated, meaning that if halt-height is set to 10, only blocks until 9 (included) will be committed. This is to go back to the original behavior before a change was introduced in v0.50.0.
 * (baseapp) [#21444](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/21444) Follow-up, Return PreBlocker events in FinalizeBlockResponse.
