Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s patch notes for version 1.1.1 are minimal, with notes that the update fixes “several issues” to “improve the gameplay experience”, as well as an issue with the main quest ‘The Closed Door’ that prevented players from completing it (I am not that far, but if you know, you know).
