5.0MKT AUTO
Mautic patches remote code execution in campaign import across three supported branches.
◆ Current state
Mautic, the open-source marketing automation platform, released 7.2.2, 6.0.10 and 5.2.12 on 26 October as security releases, including remote code execution through campaign import and a Twig sandbox escape in theme templates. September's 7.2.1 was a bug sweep after the 7.2.0 feature release that added transactional emails, A/B testing for segment emails and a Marketplace API.
◆ Where it's heading
The project keeps three branches (5.x, 6.x, 7.x) under coordinated security maintenance, with fixes landing on all of them the same day. Feature work comes in larger minor releases, followed by point releases that fix campaigns, forms and the builder.
◆ Prediction
Expect 7.3 release candidates next, given 7.2.0 followed a two-RC pattern, with 5.x and 6.x continuing to receive security-only releases.
Moosend
5.0MKT AUTO
Moosend's feed is still all blog posts; no product release in nearly three months.
◆ Current state
Every entry in Moosend's feed since early September is a blog post on marketing topics; the latest covers protecting signup forms from bot signups. No product feature releases appear in this data.
◆ Where it's heading
The development direction can't be read from this source. Either the tracked feed is a blog rather than a changelog, or product releases aren't announced publicly. The topics (automation journeys, vertical guides, campaign examples, now SEO) match Moosend's SMB email-marketing positioning but say nothing about what is shipping.
◆ Prediction
The entries do not support a prediction about the product; a real changelog source is needed before trajectory can be judged.
