Froxlor vs Apache Arrow Rust: at a glance
What is Froxlor?
Froxlor 2.3.17 fixes nginx serving PHP source as plain text
Froxlor is an open-source server administration panel. Security release 2.3.17 lists more than a dozen fixes: nginx served PHP files as plain text in folders with directory options, directory protection missed PHP and subfolders, symlinks in customer paths were not fully resolved, and several admin pages lacked permission checks. Customer data exports now stage outside the customer's web root. It follows 2.3.14 to 2.3.16, which mixed security fixes with PHP 8.5 compatibility.
What is Apache Arrow Rust?
Arrow Rust cuts release candidates on three older lines at once.
Arrow Rust shipped 60.1.0 on October 28, with Parquet encryption keys redacted from Debug output and read-ahead planning in the push decoder, after 59.3.2 and 58.4.1 fixed a use-after-free in Buffer::shrink_to_fit. On November 13 the 57, 58 and 59 maintenance lines tagged release candidates for 57.3.3, 58.4.2 and 59.3.3 within a minute of each other. The tags carry only version bumps; the changelogs are not in the feed.

Froxlor 2.3.17 fixes nginx serving PHP source as plain text
◆ Current state
Froxlor is an open-source server administration panel. Security release 2.3.17 lists more than a dozen fixes: nginx served PHP files as plain text in folders with directory options, directory protection missed PHP and subfolders, symlinks in customer paths were not fully resolved, and several admin pages lacked permission checks. Customer data exports now stage outside the customer's web root. It follows 2.3.14 to 2.3.16, which mixed security fixes with PHP 8.5 compatibility.
◆ Where it's heading
Froxlor's releases are now dominated by security audit findings, and the notes are detailed. The fixes cluster around nginx config generation and per-customer permission scoping, the parts of a hosting panel where one tenant can reach another.
◆ Prediction
More point releases from the same audit are likely, especially on nginx and permission checks; no feature release is signalled.
Apache Arrow Rust
5.0DEVOPS
Arrow Rust cuts release candidates on three older lines at once.
◆ Current state
Arrow Rust shipped 60.1.0 on October 28, with Parquet encryption keys redacted from Debug output and read-ahead planning in the push decoder, after 59.3.2 and 58.4.1 fixed a use-after-free in Buffer::shrink_to_fit. On November 13 the 57, 58 and 59 maintenance lines tagged release candidates for 57.3.3, 58.4.2 and 59.3.3 within a minute of each other. The tags carry only version bumps; the changelogs are not in the feed.
◆ Where it's heading
The project keeps four major lines alive and patches them together, so downstream users on older Arrow versions still get fixes. Feature work stays on the 60 line.
◆ Prediction
Expect the three patch releases to publish after the vote period, and a 60.2.0 or 61.0.0 candidate to follow.
