# VTEX FastStore 4.9.2 fixes session and cart validation failures after region changes

Markdown version of <https://harbyn.com/changes/vtex/2026-10-05-faststore-fixed-session-and-cart-validation-after-region-changes>.

Behavior change - VTEX. low severity. In effect.

In FastStore v4.9.0 and v4.9.1, setting a location could store the interface-only hasValidated field in the session, so ValidateSession and ValidateCartMutation requests failed with a 500 error and the cart stopped syncing with Checkout. FastStore v4.9.2 strips isSessionReady, isValidating and hasValidated before session, cart and reorder requests; upgrade to v4.9.2, no other configuration is needed.
