A small update has arrived to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. The patch notes include a few helpful bug fixes, and it also corrects a broken conversion kit that was added for the BAL-27 assault rifle.
For Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer, the update fixes an issue on the Celship map that previously caused split-screen players to encounter crashes with Dev Error 12744. It's also disabled the game's infil sequences on the Skidrow and 6 Star maps for Season 5's Cyber Attack mode, which the developer says were removed to prevent mixed team spawns.

Last week's new JAK Deathmarch aftermarket part for the BAL-27 assault rifle arrived broken, with an issue allowing the gun to have an infinite reserve ammunition. This update has fixed this issue, and the JAK Deathmarch conversion kit should function as intended and without unlimited ammo.
The Warzone side of the update is smaller, with one of the most notable changes related to the game's Bunker Buster killstreak. Players attempting to use a Bunker Buster within close proximity of an already active one will now see an "Airspace is too crowded" message.
It also corrects a few buggy Warzone challenges. This includes fixes for the issue with utility boxes not tracking properly in the Warzone Rewards challenge, and the Redeploy Drone Beacon not counting towards the "Use 10 field upgrades" daily challenge.
The full patch notes for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone can be seen below, as shared by Activision.
