Update of Oct 7, 2024 breaks Desktop Cube (KDE Plasma) for me

Hello I just noticed this, haven’t found a bug on the tracker.
I rolled back now to where I was just before I did the update.
Desktop Cube would break the Wayland session. Black screen, then plasmashell auto restarted. Every time I invoked it with Super+C (same for screen edge invocation), it would crash.
Here is my list of available updates that will break the Cube for me:
