   and payment to blinded paths has been added via the `QueryRoutes` (and 
   SendToRouteV2) APIs. This functionality is surfaced in `lncli queryroutes` 
   where the required flags are tagged with `(blinded paths)`.
+* A new config value,
+  [http-header-timeout](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/7715), is added so users can specify the amount of time the http server will wait for a request to complete before closing the connection. The default value is 5 seconds.
