 # Unreleased
 
+* Restore the accidential auth behavior of redis-rb 4.3.0 with a warning. If provided with the `default` user password, but a wrong username,
+  redis-rb will first try to connect as the provided user, but then will fallback to connect as the `default` user with the provided password.
+  This behavior is deprecated and will be removed in Redis 4.6.0. Fix #1038.
+
 # 4.5.0
 
 * Handle parts of the command using incompatible encodings. See #1037.
