+====================================================================
+Deprecation: #86179 - Protected render() method in BackendController
+====================================================================
+
+See :issue:`86179`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Method :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Controller\BackendController->render()` has changed visibility
+from public to protected and should not be called any longer.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+Calling the method from an external object triggers a PHP :php:`E_USER_DEPRECATED` error.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+This internal method is usually not called by extensions directly. Since the method name
+is so generic, the extension scanner is not configured to search for usages, it would
+trigger far too many false positives.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+Use route target :php:`main` instead that calls method :php:`mainAction` and returns a
+proper PSR-7 Response object.
