What is AdGuard Home?

AdGuard Home's stable line takes a Go security update and turns off Multipath TCP.

AdGuard Home v0.107.80 is a security release on the stable line: it moves to the Go version with the 1.27.3 fixes, disables Multipath TCP support to avoid CVE-2026-98432, and drops macOS 13 Ventura as a consequence of Go 1.27. The beta channel moved to the new UI and v1.0.0 numbering at the end of September, with v1.0.0-b.1 as the first build.

What is SpinupWP?

SpinupWP now writes DNS records for you, starting with Cloudflare and Route 53.

SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and third-party consoles into its own dashboard and API. September completed the site-settings API, October's dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters, and on November 3 SpinupWP began managing A records through connected Cloudflare and Amazon Route 53 accounts.

AdGuard Home vs SpinupWP: editorial side-by-side

A
AdGuard Home
INFRA · APIS
2.5

AdGuard Home's stable line takes a Go security update and turns off Multipath TCP.

◆ Current state

AdGuard Home v0.107.80 is a security release on the stable line: it moves to the Go version with the 1.27.3 fixes, disables Multipath TCP support to avoid CVE-2026-98432, and drops macOS 13 Ventura as a consequence of Go 1.27. The beta channel moved to the new UI and v1.0.0 numbering at the end of September, with v1.0.0-b.1 as the first build.

◆ Where it's heading

Two tracks run in parallel: a stable 0.107 line that ships mostly security and dependency updates, and a beta line that has become v1.0.0 and carries the new UI. Platform support is now set by Go's own requirements, as the macOS 13 removal shows on both lines.

◆ Prediction

The next visible moves are likely further v1.0.0 betas and continued 0.107 security releases; the entries do not show when 1.0 reaches stable.

5.0

SpinupWP now writes DNS records for you, starting with Cloudflare and Route 53.

◆ Current state

SpinupWP is moving server and site work out of SSH and third-party consoles into its own dashboard and API. September completed the site-settings API, October's dashboard rebuild added bulk actions, labels and filters, and on November 3 SpinupWP began managing A records through connected Cloudflare and Amazon Route 53 accounts.

◆ Where it's heading

Each release removes one more step a WordPress operator used to do elsewhere: PHP settings, software updates, disabling sites, and now DNS. The pattern points to a full site lifecycle, from creation through deletion, handled inside SpinupWP.

◆ Prediction

More DNS providers are the likely next step, since the launch says it is starting with two; whether DNS management also reaches the API is not shown in the entries.
