SUMMARY
 I've made a Discuss post here
https://discuss.kde.org/t/update-to-plasmashell-6-3-6-seems-to-have-messed-up-dark-themeing/40471

Updating to plasmashell 6.3.6 on Debian unstable seems to have messed up dark theming. See the images.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Update to Plasma 6.3.6 on Debian unstable
2. Set global theme to breeze dark

OBSERVED RESULT
Incorrect icons and borders of highlights in the network menu look weird (this weirdness happens in light mode too)

EXPECTED RESULT
Dark mode should use dark icons and highlights should not look like that.

Thank you for your bug report!
Debian advises users to not submit bugs upstream (https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting), as this version of the KDE software no longer receives updates or maintenance from KDE, and so it's possible that the bug exists only in Debian at this point.
Could you report the bug to Debian using the report bug utility (https://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/reportbug)? If necessary, the maintainer of the package will forward the bug upstream.
Thanks for understanding!
