#61489: 6.1.7 and 6.2.6 Updates Cause Critical Error

-----------------------------+-----------------------------
Today we had around 20+ sites go down sporadically across multiple servers
and hosting providers. All of the sites were on 6.1.7 or 6.2.6 and had the
same errors:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: call_user_func_array(): Argument #1
($callback) must be a valid callback, function “_wp_footnotes_kses_init”
not found or invalid function name in /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php:308
After verifying checksums on core we found that the wp-includes/default-
filters.php file did not match and we had to re-download core on all the
sites to get rid of the critical error. I imagine this will be happening
for us most of the day. We checked server and security logs and didn’t
find anything correlated to the issue and believe it may be something to
do with the update methods. Not sure but some insight here would be
helpful.
