About EGroupware

EGroupware patches critical security vulnerabilities weekly while adding S/MIME certificate management.

EGroupware is an enterprise groupware suite in heavy security-patch mode — five releases in six weeks have all led with security fixes rated high or critical. The 23.1 branch hit end-of-life in August 2026 with a final security release, consolidating the user base on 26.x. Outside the security cadence, the August 19 release added meaningful S/MIME improvements: CSR export/import, self-signed certificate generation, PKCS#7 upload support, and intermediate CA cert handling.
