+Breaking: #71110 - TYPO3-specific Upload Limit removed
+======================================================
+
+See :issue:`71110`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+TYPO3 has a specific upload limit setting, that is set to 10MB by default, to manually limit down the PHP-specific
+setting `max_upload_limit`. If not configured properly the PHP limit was lower than the TYPO3-specific limit.
+
+The TYPO3 setting `$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['maxFileSize']` has been removed and the PHP-internal limit is now the
+upper barrier.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+Setting the option mentioned above has no effect anymore. The PHP limit is used instead.
+
+The TCA setting `max_size` for `fe_users.image` has been removed, allowing editors to upload images with a size
+up to the PHP-specific limit.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+Extensions that use `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['BE']['maxFileSize']` as default for the TCA setting `max_size`
+need adjustment, if the PHP-specific upload limit is higher than `$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['maxFileSize']`.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+Explicitly set a value for `max_size` or drop those lines from your TCA configuration.
