Dokploy vs Oh Dear: at a glance
What is Dokploy?
Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
What is Oh Dear?
Oh Dear's weekly changelogs have carried a security section five weeks running.
Oh Dear, an uptime and site monitoring service, publishes a changelog each week. Since late September, along with features such as custom webhook headers, 30 to 90 days of status page history and AI fix prompts in Broken Links alerts, it has fixed a high-severity SSRF in uptime checks and AI page fetches, a status page CNAME takeover, a reflected XSS and a status page ID leak, restricted scoped API tokens from team-wide endpoints, and made the MCP consent screen show redirect destinations. The MCP URL now opens a landing page in a browser.

◆ Current state
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
◆ Where it's heading
The commercial thread predicted from the plan limits has become concrete: the 0.30 releases include Cloud onboarding and trial handling alongside the self-hosted product. Hardening continues in smaller steps, including a Node.js security bump in v0.30.9. Patch notes have grown thinner, and two recent tags carry no change list at all.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Cloud billing and onboarding work on the 0.30 line. With v0.30.10's notes empty, its content cannot be judged.
Oh Dear
5.0INFRA · APIS
Oh Dear's weekly changelogs have carried a security section five weeks running.
◆ Current state
Oh Dear, an uptime and site monitoring service, publishes a changelog each week. Since late September, along with features such as custom webhook headers, 30 to 90 days of status page history and AI fix prompts in Broken Links alerts, it has fixed a high-severity SSRF in uptime checks and AI page fetches, a status page CNAME takeover, a reflected XSS and a status page ID leak, restricted scoped API tokens from team-wide endpoints, and made the MCP consent screen show redirect destinations. The MCP URL now opens a landing page in a browser.
◆ Where it's heading
August's large MCP release opened the whole product to AI agents, and the autumn work is closing the gaps that kind of exposure creates: SSRF through AI page fetches, consent redirects and token scope. Several fixes credit outside reporters, which suggests responsible disclosure is active. Product work continues alongside in small, practical items for webhooks, status pages and resellers.
◆ Prediction
Expect security fixes to keep appearing in most weekly changelogs while outside reports continue. AI features are spreading into notifications, as the Broken Links fix prompts show, so more AI-written guidance inside alerts is likely.
