Overview

This quarter builds on the Master Build Migration and focuses on security hardening, scope safety, and framework consistency
in preparation for the Akrobotic 2.1.0 release cycle. Akrobotic is a modern ColdFusion (CFML) framework, and key efforts this quarter include URL injection prevention, implicit scope cleanup across core framework modules, and continued modernization of packages, layouts, and communications infrastructure.

Security & Standards

• Application | htaccess Security Rollout – Implemented safeguards preventing URL injection and unsafe request patterns.
• Framework | htaccess / URL Stuffing Protection – Deployed major fixes to block URL stuffing and malformed request vectors, verified in production.
• Framework | URL Routing Hardening – Centralized and standardized rewrite logic for safer and more predictable routing behavior.

Implicit Scope Enforcement

• Framework | Implicit Scope Updates – Completed security-driven scope cleanup across core framework modules: Access, Barcode, Communication, Debugger, Devices, Security, and XLC.
• Reduced ambiguity caused by implicit variable resolution and aligned controllers with modern CFML best practices.

Communications & Credentials

• Framework | Communications (AWS SES) – Updated credential management for AWS SES.
• Framework | Communications (Pushover) – Updated credential handling for Pushover notifications.
• Improved separation of configuration, credentials, and execution logic.

Framework & Package Maintenance

• Framework | Package Cleanup & Modernization – Continued removal of legacy patterns and alignment with Master Build structure.
• Packages | Default Response Views & Layouts – Cleaned legacy markup and improved Bootstrap 5 layout consistency.
• Framework | Email Templates – Standardized header and footer paths across packages.

Bug Fixes & Stability

• Centris | Company Logo Upload – Fixed title handling and corrected tracking behavior.
• Centris | Messaging – Resolved centrisProfileInstantiate error affecting outbound messages.
• Deployment | Git Synchronization – Ensured deployment consistency and stable production baselines.

Summary

Q4 2025 significantly strengthens Akrobotic’s security posture and internal consistency. URL injection vectors are now actively blocked, implicit scope risks have been reduced across the framework, and core communications and layouts are aligned with modern standards, positioning Akrobotic for a stable, confident 2.1.0 release.
