 * Fixed tests which expected lists from `dpctl` functions which now return tuples (i.e., `dpctl.SyclDevice.create_sub_devices`) [#2945](https://github.com/IntelPython/dpnp/pull/2945)
 * Fixed `PytestRemovedIn10Warning` raised by `pytest` 9.1.0 by converting class-scoped fixtures to class methods [#2952](https://github.com/IntelPython/dpnp/pull/2952)
 * Fixed `dpnp.linalg.svd(..., hermitian=True)` returning a non-unitary `vh` for singular input arrays due to a zero sign appearing [#2954](https://github.com/IntelPython/dpnp/pull/2954)
+* Fixed scalar conversion of size-one `dpnp.tensor.usm_ndarray` (e.g. `int()`, `float()`, indexing) which failed with NumPy 2.5 after the in-place `ndarray.shape` assignment was deprecated [#2958](https://github.com/IntelPython/dpnp/pull/2958)
