What is Vero?

Marketing automation mid-migration, rebuilding Journeys branching on the 2.0 platform

Vero is running two platforms at once and the changelog reads that way. Vero 2.0 gained True/False and Exit nodes in Journeys — real conditional branching that routes customers on behavior, properties and actions — plus an SMS node, a Cmd+K command palette, Forms, and project-level reporting on the homepage summarizing messages sent, open, click and delivery rates. CC on emails shipped to Vero 1.0 campaigns with 2.0 support described as coming.

What is AcyMailing?

AcyMailing 11.1.2 closes holes that let strangers read or unsubscribe any subscriber.

AcyMailing is a Joomla and WordPress email marketing extension. Release 11.1.2 is a security update: it fixes an unauthenticated leak of subscriber data including the subscriber key, anonymous unsubscribing of any known address, logged-in users changing other people's subscriptions, unchecked post-subscription redirects and campaign archive pages opening without permission. It follows 11.1's privacy work, a per-subscriber tracking switch and fixed one-click unsubscribe.

Marketing automation mid-migration, rebuilding Journeys branching on the 2.0 platform

◆ Current state

Vero is running two platforms at once and the changelog reads that way. Vero 2.0 gained True/False and Exit nodes in Journeys — real conditional branching that routes customers on behavior, properties and actions — plus an SMS node, a Cmd+K command palette, Forms, and project-level reporting on the homepage summarizing messages sent, open, click and delivery rates. CC on emails shipped to Vero 1.0 campaigns with 2.0 support described as coming.

◆ Where it's heading

The work is about reaching parity and then passing it. Branching and exit nodes are table stakes for a journey builder, so shipping them in 2.0 marks the point where the new platform becomes usable for real lifecycle programs rather than linear sends. The CC entry shows the migration's awkward middle — a feature landing on the old platform first. Project-level reporting suggests the next concern is proving programs work, not just building them.

◆ Prediction

Expect CC and the remaining 1.0-only capabilities to close out on 2.0, since the entries explicitly flag that gap, and reporting to deepen now that a project-level summary exists.

2.5

AcyMailing 11.1.2 closes holes that let strangers read or unsubscribe any subscriber.

◆ Current state

AcyMailing is a Joomla and WordPress email marketing extension. Release 11.1.2 is a security update: it fixes an unauthenticated leak of subscriber data including the subscriber key, anonymous unsubscribing of any known address, logged-in users changing other people's subscriptions, unchecked post-subscription redirects and campaign archive pages opening without permission. It follows 11.1's privacy work, a per-subscriber tracking switch and fixed one-click unsubscribe.

◆ Where it's heading

Since the 11.0 security rework in July, AcyMailing's releases alternate between privacy features and fixes for flaws in how subscriber actions are authorized. 11.1.2 shows the 11.0 rework left gaps in the subscription paths, now patched with ownership checks and security tokens.

◆ Prediction

A security advisory with full details is promised once users have had time to update, and further 11.1.x patches are likely as those details invite scrutiny of related code paths.
