Update Information:

This release validate TLS certificates properly, preventing man-in-the-middle attacks.

This will be a regression for users of IRC-over-SSL servers/proxies that do not have a certificate trusted by system-wide CA configuration; they will no longer be able to connect. If someone implements fd.o #57130, that will provide the ability for those users to approve additional certificates.
