What is Dokploy?

This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes.

What is Velociraptor?

Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.

Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.

Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.

◆ 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.

Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.

◆ Current state

Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.

◆ Where it's heading

Since June the project has been in security mode, fixing CVEs on the current line and backporting to the previous one. Feature work shows up as new artifacts, here an Azure Monitor export, which keeps Velociraptor feeding results into the logging tools teams already use.

◆ Prediction

Expect further 0.77 patch releases and possibly another backport if new CVEs are published; the timing of a 0.78 feature release is not signaled here.
