Mailu's October: patched PHP for webmail, and a resolver that reports DNS failures

maintenance-branchroundcubecve-patchingself-hosted-maildns-resolver
◆Current state
Mailu's 2024.06 branch ships pinned releases, each tied to a single issue. October brought resolver fixes for the DNSSEC KSK rollover and SERVFAIL healthchecks, Roundcube 1.6.20, then PHP2Shell CVE mitigations in webmail followed by the patched PHP runtime. 2024.06.68 on 8 November carries the same PHP2Shell mitigation note again.
◆Where it's heading
The project remains in one-fix-per-release maintenance on the 2024.06 line, with upstream webmail and PHP security driving much of the cadence. Nothing in the entries points to a new main release.
◆Prediction
The next releases will most likely follow upstream Roundcube or PHP security fixes, as three of the last six did.

    2024.06.68 re-ships the PHP2Shell webmail mitigation

    The release note repeats the PHP2Shell mitigation from 2024.06.66, after 2024.06.67 already shipped the patched PHP runtime. It reads as a re-release on the maintenance branch rather than a new fix.
