What is SOGo?

SOGo's release notes have become a vulnerability disclosure channel with a version number attached.

SOGo is a self-hosted groupware suite — webmail, calendaring and contacts — maintained by Alinto. Four of the last six releases exist primarily to fix security vulnerabilities: XSS through malicious mail, SQL injection, OpenID impersonation, script execution via theme and hint query parameters. The newest, 5.12.10, fixes four more and states that all previous versions are affected, with CVE identifiers still pending at publication.

What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3.0 beta closes enterprise auth and SEO gaps at sprint pace

Wiki.js is running a dual-track strategy: v2.5.x is in maintenance, collecting only security and bug fixes, while v3.0.0 moves through beta weekly with substantial new features. The v3 beta has concentrated recent drops on two converging pillars — enterprise authentication (Entra ID, LDAP, SAML, Discord with group-to-role mapping) and operations infrastructure (Audit Log, admin metrics, sitemap serving, prerendering for anonymous requests). All active development runs through a single committer, shipping multiple named features per weekly beta build.

SOGo's release notes have become a vulnerability disclosure channel with a version number attached.

◆ Current state

SOGo is a self-hosted groupware suite — webmail, calendaring and contacts — maintained by Alinto. Four of the last six releases exist primarily to fix security vulnerabilities: XSS through malicious mail, SQL injection, OpenID impersonation, script execution via theme and hint query parameters. The newest, 5.12.10, fixes four more and states that all previous versions are affected, with CVE identifiers still pending at publication.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is a codebase whose input-handling surface is being systematically probed, largely by the community reporting to the project's bug address, and patched in batches. Release numbering has stopped being reliable as a timeline — 5.12.7 shipped after 5.12.8 — so version order tells you nothing about what a deployment contains. The two non-security releases in this window were both regression repairs from the security releases that preceded them, which is the cost of shipping fixes at this cadence.

◆ Prediction

Given four security batches in five months and CVE identifiers still being assigned retroactively, another batch on the same cadence is the most likely next release, with a regression patch following it.

Wiki.js 3.0 beta closes enterprise auth and SEO gaps at sprint pace

◆ Current state

Wiki.js is running a dual-track strategy: v2.5.x is in maintenance, collecting only security and bug fixes, while v3.0.0 moves through beta weekly with substantial new features. The v3 beta has concentrated recent drops on two converging pillars — enterprise authentication (Entra ID, LDAP, SAML, Discord with group-to-role mapping) and operations infrastructure (Audit Log, admin metrics, sitemap serving, prerendering for anonymous requests). All active development runs through a single committer, shipping multiple named features per weekly beta build.

◆ Where it's heading

The v3 beta is systematically filling the gaps that have kept Wiki.js out of enterprise environments: SSO across major identity providers, compliance tooling, SEO readiness, and theme customization for whitelabeled deployments. Each week's build adds a category that a production deployment actually requires. The remaining areas not yet visible in the beta changelog are storage/sync providers and full editor-module parity with v2 — those gaps are the logical preconditions for an RC.

◆ Prediction

The next beta cycle will likely address storage backends and remaining editor modules. A release candidate becomes the natural next step once those surface areas are covered.
