About BookStack
BookStack opened a real theme extension surface, then spent six weeks patching CVEs.
BookStack shipped v26.03 in mid-March 2026 with a meaningful new theme module system and several theme events (page render, pre-save, OIDC URL customization) — the first time the project's customization surface has had real extension points rather than just template overrides. The next six weeks were almost entirely security work: four security-marked patch releases (v25.12.9, v26.03.1, v26.03.2, v26.03.4) addressing role-escalation via registration, hidden content leaking through markdown exports, style-code injection in revision diffs, and attachment/webhook URL validation gaps. Multiple researchers credited per release.
