   - Previously, `etcd --auto-compaction-mode revision --auto-compaction-retention 1` was [translated to revision retention 3600000000000](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/issues/9337).
   - Now, `etcd --auto-compaction-mode revision --auto-compaction-retention 1` is correctly parsed as revision retention 1.
 - Enable etcd server [`raft.Config.CheckQuorum` when starting with `ForceNewCluster`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/9347).
+- Fix [overflow by large TTL values for lease `Grant`](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/pull/9399)
+  - The endpoint now returns ErrLeaseTTLTooLarge when a requested TTL is larger than 9,000,000,000.
