AdGuard Home vs Nautobot: at a glance
What is AdGuard Home?
AdGuard Home's 1.0 beta matches stable's security fixes and reworks client settings
AdGuard Home v0.107.80 is a security release on the stable line: a Go update for the 1.27.3 fixes, Multipath TCP disabled for CVE-2026-98432 and macOS 13 dropped. The beta channel moved to the new UI and v1.0.0 numbering at the end of September; v1.0.0-b.2 on November 5 carries the same security changes, splits per-client global settings so blocked services have their own switch, and fixes a run of DHCP and client ID validation bugs.
What is Nautobot?
Nautobot 3.3 alpha 2 adds test helpers and a cable location filter after 3.2.9's token-leak fix.
Nautobot's 3.2 and 2.4 lines still ship same-day security releases every two weeks; on November 9 v3.2.9 and v2.4.46 fixed a flaw where the Export Object List job let users read other users' API token keys. The 3.3 feature line opened the same day with REST API rate limiting and JSON and YAML exports. v3.3.0a2 on November 13 mostly adds Playwright helpers for App test suites, along with a location filter on the cable connection form and a fix for a login page that reloaded every 15 seconds.

AdGuard Home
5.0INFRA · APIS
AdGuard Home's 1.0 beta matches stable's security fixes and reworks client settings
◆ Current state
AdGuard Home v0.107.80 is a security release on the stable line: a Go update for the 1.27.3 fixes, Multipath TCP disabled for CVE-2026-98432 and macOS 13 dropped. The beta channel moved to the new UI and v1.0.0 numbering at the end of September; v1.0.0-b.2 on November 5 carries the same security changes, splits per-client global settings so blocked services have their own switch, and fixes a run of DHCP and client ID validation bugs.
◆ Where it's heading
The two lines are now patched in step on security, while the 1.0 beta absorbs UI corrections and validation fixes ahead of a stable switch. The beta fixes are mostly about settings that did not save or validate correctly, which is the cleanup a new UI needs before it replaces the old one.
◆ Prediction
Expect more 1.0 betas fixing settings and validation in the new UI; the entries give no date for 1.0 stable.
Nautobot
5.0INFRA · APIS
Nautobot 3.3 alpha 2 adds test helpers and a cable location filter after 3.2.9's token-leak fix.
◆ Current state
Nautobot's 3.2 and 2.4 lines still ship same-day security releases every two weeks; on November 9 v3.2.9 and v2.4.46 fixed a flaw where the Export Object List job let users read other users' API token keys. The 3.3 feature line opened the same day with REST API rate limiting and JSON and YAML exports. v3.3.0a2 on November 13 mostly adds Playwright helpers for App test suites, along with a location filter on the cable connection form and a fix for a login page that reloaded every 15 seconds.
◆ Where it's heading
3.3 is moving through alphas quickly, four days apart, while the security audit continues on the stable lines. The Playwright helpers suggest Nautobot wants App developers to test against its UI with shared tooling rather than custom scripts.
◆ Prediction
More 3.3 alphas or a beta should follow within weeks, alongside the next pair of 3.2.x and 2.4.x security releases on the two-week rhythm.
