What is KACE?

KACE extends its PHP2SHELL fix to the SDA deployment appliance, six days after disclosure.

KACE has now patched the critical PHP2SHELL vulnerabilities across both appliances: SMA 15.1 and 15.0 on October 23, and the SDA 9.3 deployment appliance on October 27. SMA also gained official support for Windows 11 26H2 agents and patches, following KACE Cloud's 26H2 support a few days earlier.

What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3.0 beta ships an MCP server so AI agents can work against the wiki directly.

Wiki.js 3.0 is still a beta not meant for production, but beta.705 adds a built-in MCP server, refined personal access token scopes, page lifecycle rules with page ownership, a feedback board where reviewers manage ideas, and link completion in the markdown editor. Recent betas added live notes, math, access tokens, SCIM and Excalidraw collaboration.

KACE vs Wiki.js: editorial side-by-side

KACE

COLLAB

5.0

KACE extends its PHP2SHELL fix to the SDA deployment appliance, six days after disclosure.

◆ Current state

◆ Where it's heading

The changelog is dominated by security response and OS-version coverage, with both SMA branches patched in lockstep. Feature work is limited to agent reliability fixes. KACE behaves like a maintained endpoint-management line rather than one being redirected.

◆ Prediction

Expect November Patch Tuesday content and further cumulative patches on both SMA branches. The entries don't point to new feature work.

Wiki.js

COLLAB

6.3

Wiki.js 3.0 beta ships an MCP server so AI agents can work against the wiki directly.

◆ Current state

◆ Where it's heading

Each beta adds a piece that larger teams need: SSO and SCIM, governance through ownership and lifecycle rules, and now machine access through MCP and scoped tokens. 3.0 is becoming an AI-accessible knowledge base with enterprise controls rather than a straight successor to 2.x.

◆ Prediction

Expect MCP tools to be tied to the new PAT scopes and page rules, and the beta cadence to keep adding governance features before a release candidate.
