We are proud to finally release version 1.0.0 of CFConfig.  This library has been in development for nearly two years (20 months) and has had over 100 alpha releases!  CFConfig is already in use for production deploys, development setups and in the Ortus Docker Image.  CFConfig is a CLI tool built upon a set of services that can manage the configuration of your Adobe, Lucee, and Railo servers so you never have to manually setup a server again. 

CFConfig has been a huge effort and has received more pull requests than most of our projects for the time it has existed.  A big shout out goes to the CFML Community for coming together to help make CFConfig a realityWe've had 12 contributors and over 30 pull requests! Contributors include:

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 4 : WriteDump Enhanced!

You call writeDump() on an ORM entity or a very rich class graph . The browser locks up. Thirty seconds later you get a page with forty thousand rows on it, you scroll for a while, you give up, and you go edit your code to dump a sub-key instead. Or worse, you crash the server.

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 4 : Locking Down Prompt Injection

BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 4 : Locking Down Prompt Injection

LLM applications face a class of attack traditional input validation was never built for: prompt injection. An attacker embeds instructions in user input, a retrieved document, a web page your tool fetched, or an MCP result, trying to override your system prompt, exfiltrate data, or hijack a tool call. BoxLang AI 3.4.0 ships four layered, configurable defenses against exactly this, plus one more that's on unconditionally.
