What is Countly?

Countly 25.03.58 tightens API tokens, sessions and login lockouts in one security patch.

Countly 25.03.58 is a security-heavy patch for the 25.03 line. App-restricted tokens must now declare their permissions, password changes and member lockouts revoke tokens, single-use tokens and reset links work once even under concurrency, and login failures count per account regardless of username casing. It also tightens access to dashboards, dbviewer and exports, and fixes file migration, remote-config targeting and star-rating widgets.

What is Feedly?

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

5.0

Countly 25.03.58 tightens API tokens, sessions and login lockouts in one security patch.

◆ Current state

Countly 25.03.58 is a security-heavy patch for the 25.03 line. App-restricted tokens must now declare their permissions, password changes and member lockouts revoke tokens, single-use tokens and reset links work once even under concurrency, and login failures count per account regardless of username casing. It also tightens access to dashboards, dbviewer and exports, and fixes file migration, remote-config targeting and star-rating widgets.

◆ Where it's heading

The 25.03 LTS line keeps absorbing security work at a fast clip: an upstream Node CVE, certificate distrust, and now a sweep of Countly's own token and permission model. Feature work stays in enterprise licensing and journeys, while LTS releases mostly harden what exists.

◆ Prediction

Expect a matching 24.05 backport of the token and permission fixes. Token owners may also need migration guidance, since existing app-restricted tokens without permissions are now limited to their owner's rights.

Feedly has become a threat-intel platform where AI agents, not feeds, do the reading.

◆ Current state

Feedly now ships on a two-week cadence almost entirely against its Threat Intelligence product. The surface is a family of AI agents — Custom Intel Agents, Cyberattack Agent, Vulnerability Agent, plus tuned models for insider threats and threat-actor campaigns — wrapped in Insight Cards that carry CVE, IoC and detection-rule context. Report Builder and newsletters are the output layer; the RSS reader heritage barely appears in the changelog anymore.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run through every release. First, agents are being fleshed out into complete workflow objects: they gained Ask AI Analyze and Research actions, then table controls, then alerting. Second, Feedly is closing the trust gap that AI-generated intel opens — MITRE ATT&CK tagging accuracy, exploit confidence and evidence on CVE cards, and Report Builder citations that resolve to the source passage. The integrations (Censys, GreyNoise, VirusTotal, Analyst1, SPL alongside KQL) point at fitting into SOC tooling rather than replacing it.

◆ Prediction

Expect the alerting added to Custom Intel Agents to spread to the other agents, and continued query-language and enrichment coverage aimed at existing SIEM workflows. Whether the Ask AI Research Playground becomes a real self-serve entry point or stays an evaluation demo is not readable from these entries.
