December 2025 focused on security hardening of the Real-Dev-Squad website-backend by triaging a vulnerability in the Progress Updates API. A hot-fix was deployed to temporarily disable the POST route to prevent exploitation while a permanent fix is developed. This containment approach protects user data, reduces risk across downstream services, and preserves system stability for customers. Related tests for the POST functionality were skipped during this remediation to avoid instability. The patch is tracked by commit b335ed9b84f6beeac63410ed8f63a9336eedaa1f. Next steps include implementing a robust fix and re-enabling the POST route with validated tests.
