Kanboard vs Teamhood

Kanboard's last six releases read as a single sustained security audit: parameterized queries replacing raw SQL, SSRF protection for webhooks, LDAP injection escapes, timing-safe token comparisons, CSRF for project role changes, comment-visibility enforcement for unauthenticated users, and removal of unsafe deserialization paths (file cache driver, legacy serialized events). Feature work continues in parallel — RTL support, Arabic translation, sub-task counts, bulk tag operations — but is clearly secondary to the hardening arc.

The team is methodically working through input surfaces (LDAP, headers, webhooks, file uploads, redirect targets) and output surfaces (comments, exports, API responses) to close authorization and injection gaps. This is mature-project hygiene, not pivot work — Kanboard is positioning itself as an audit-ready self-hostable kanban for organizations with security review checklists. PHP 8.1 is now the floor; the codebase is being modernized alongside the hardening.

Expect the security cadence to continue with one to two more releases focused on remaining trust boundaries, then a feature-weighted release picking up RTL/locale follow-ons and possibly the long-promised SQLite/Postgres parity work hinted at by recent Docker Compose additions.
