Stack Watch
Self-hosted update briefs — is it safe to update, or wait?
Disclaimer: Automated heuristics over public release notes and vulnerability databases (OSV / NVD). Can be wrong or incomplete. Always back up first and validate upgrades yourself. Stack Watch does not invent CVE IDs or issue counts. This is an MVP research project, not a live paid service.

Back up first

Always back up first. Stack Watch briefs are automated heuristics over public release notes and vulnerability databases. They can be wrong or incomplete. You are responsible for validating upgrades in your own environment. We never invent CVE IDs or issue counts — if a number is missing, it was not found.
