What is Bludit?
A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
What is Saleshandy?
Saleshandy adds 7.7M people in October's Lead Finder refresh and reports on recent web flaws.
Saleshandy's recent releases center on Lead Finder: monthly data refreshes with published counts, ~8x faster contact reveals and CSV-based exclusion of contacts users already own. The October refresh added 7.7M people and updated 190M records, slightly below September's 8.08M and 249.8M. A separate post says the eMudhra key issue and the PHP and Node.js flaws did not affect accounts, and that services and servers were patched.

0.0MARKETING
A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
◆ Current state
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run in parallel. One is a sustained security cleanup, largely driven by external reports and handled release by release. The other is a quiet repositioning of the API: 3.22.0 improved it specifically to support MCP, which points a file-based CMS at agent-driven authoring. The plugin hook work in 3.20.0 fits the same pattern of opening the editor to programmatic control.
◆ Prediction
Expect the MCP-facing API work to continue — the initial support arrived as API improvements rather than a documented server, which is the piece still missing.
Saleshandy
5.0MARKETING
Saleshandy adds 7.7M people in October's Lead Finder refresh and reports on recent web flaws.
◆ Current state
Saleshandy's recent releases center on Lead Finder: monthly data refreshes with published counts, ~8x faster contact reveals and CSV-based exclusion of contacts users already own. The October refresh added 7.7M people and updated 190M records, slightly below September's 8.08M and 249.8M. A separate post says the eMudhra key issue and the PHP and Node.js flaws did not affect accounts, and that services and servers were patched.
◆ Where it's heading
Lead Finder is becoming the product's core, with data freshness reported like a metric and features aimed at saving reveal credits. The security post continues a habit of plain-language customer communication seen in the monthly data updates.
◆ Prediction
Expect a November data refresh with published counts and more Lead Finder filtering or credit-saving features. The entries don't show new work on sequences or the dialer.
