What is Dorik?
A website builder restructuring its plans while the feed repeats every release four times
Two releases are visible behind heavy duplication — the April update appears four times and the March one twice. April introduced a new free plan with unlimited domains alongside Dorik Pro and Agency tiers, added a Table element and tooltip support for links and lists, released seven new templates, and fixed CMS pagination. March released six templates and fixed public API collection items not appearing on live sites, plus collection and page deletion and slug-change problems.
What is OpenEXR?
A second IDManifest flaw lands two weeks after OpenEXR's forty-CVE sweep
OpenEXR's recent history is dominated by security response. On 2026-08-05 three branches were tagged within two minutes — v3.4.14, v3.3.13 and v3.2.11, fixing 15, 15 and 10 CVEs from one fuzzing and audit campaign, all memory corruption reachable by opening a crafted .exr file. Two weeks later v3.4.15 and v3.3.14 fix two further memory-allocation issues, this time confined to the code that decodes the idmanifest attribute, with CVEs requested but not yet assigned. The 3.4 tag also carries a missing Windows export and reduced compiler warnings in example code.

Dorik

A website builder restructuring its plans while the feed repeats every release four times
◆ Current state
Two releases are visible behind heavy duplication — the April update appears four times and the March one twice. April introduced a new free plan with unlimited domains alongside Dorik Pro and Agency tiers, added a Table element and tooltip support for links and lists, released seven new templates, and fixed CMS pagination. March released six templates and fixed public API collection items not appearing on live sites, plus collection and page deletion and slug-change problems.
◆ Where it's heading
The plan restructuring is the most consequential item: an unlimited-domain free tier alongside named Pro and Agency plans is a repositioning toward agencies who manage many client sites, with the free tier as the entry point. The feature work stays modest — a table element, tooltips, template volume — and the fixes cluster around the CMS and API, which is where a site builder gets used seriously rather than casually.
◆ Prediction
Expect further agency-oriented capability to follow the Agency plan, since the tier now exists but the window shows no multi-site management features to justify it.
OpenEXR

A second IDManifest flaw lands two weeks after OpenEXR's forty-CVE sweep
◆ Current state
OpenEXR's recent history is dominated by security response. On 2026-08-05 three branches were tagged within two minutes — v3.4.14, v3.3.13 and v3.2.11, fixing 15, 15 and 10 CVEs from one fuzzing and audit campaign, all memory corruption reachable by opening a crafted .exr file. Two weeks later v3.4.15 and v3.3.14 fix two further memory-allocation issues, this time confined to the code that decodes the idmanifest attribute, with CVEs requested but not yet assigned. The 3.4 tag also carries a missing Windows export and reduced compiler warnings in example code.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is now established: findings arrive from a continuing fuzzing effort and are patched simultaneously across every supported stream, with the release notes written to tell integrators precisely which code paths are reachable. The narrowing scope is the useful signal — August's first batch spanned the C++ libraries, the command-line tools and the Python bindings, while this one touches only idmanifest decoding and explicitly states other code is unaffected even on files carrying the attribute. Both new tags are release candidates dated ahead of their tagging, and the 3.3 backport reuses the 3.4 note verbatim, down to naming v3.4.15 in its own body.
◆ Prediction
Expect the requested CVEs to be assigned identifiers and the two RCs to be promoted to final tags, with a matching 3.2 backport if the idmanifest code is present in that stream. Further attribute-parser findings are likely while the fuzzing campaign continues.
