 ### Fixed
 
+- **scheduler:** Pausing a scheduled task no longer loses the pause when a
+  dispatch is in flight on SQLite. `release_dispatch_lease` guards on the lease
+  owner — which pausing clears — but read the row without taking SQLite's
+  writer, so a stale read passed the guard and wrote the task back to
+  `enabled` with `next_run_at` untouched, leaving the scheduler firing a task
+  the API had reported as paused. The read now takes the writer first, as every
+  other mutating path in that repository does. PostgreSQL was unaffected.
+  ([#5777])

 ### 修复
 
+- **调度器：** 在 SQLite 上，调度分发进行中暂停计划任务时不再丢失暂停状态。
+  `release_dispatch_lease` 依据租约持有者做校验（暂停会清除该字段），但读取任务行时没有先获取
+  SQLite 的写锁，因此过期的读取会通过校验，并把任务状态写回 `enabled` 且不改动 `next_run_at`，
+  导致接口已回复“已暂停”的任务仍被继续触发。现在该读取会像该仓储中其他写入路径一样先获取写锁。
+  PostgreSQL 不受影响。([#5777])
 - **上传：** 删除已上传的文档时，不再连带删除其旁边转换生成的 Markdown。转换以文档主干名
   命名配套文件，名称被占用时回退为 `_N` 后缀，因此文档旁的 `.md` 可能属于主干名相同的另一个
