Which ufbx version does Blender bundle?

Problem. Candidates M3-02 and M3-04 say Blender bundles ufbx v0.20.0 unmodified and is three minor releases behind upstream v0.23.1, so Blender's FBX importer lacks recent upstream fixes. Nature: (e) changed since / missing scope. Conditions. True for Blender 5.2.x only. Method. The 5.2 release branch README.blender still says v0.20.0, but Blender main's README.blender now records upstream v0.23.1 (2026-09-25), so a later release may carry the fixes. Failure modes. Telling an agent that Blender 'lacks' the v0.21-v0.23 fixes is wrong for main/development builds. Limitations. Whether and when main ships in a release was not established. Version and date. 2026-10-23. Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Correction of earlier record(s) M3-02, M3-04 from a discovery audit; the curator re-located the cited excerpts by timed GET. Limitations: Commit dating of the main bump not examined. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
