Moderate signal

ReleasePort Layer 1 version 2.9.1 hardens core admin against XML attacks and patches multiple security issues across webmail, IMAP migration, DKIM key generation, DMARC processing, and global parameters.

Why it matters: All components listed have severity 85–90; operators should upgrade immediately to prevent XML injection, CSV formula injection, IDOR, path traversal, secret disclosure, and cross‑tenant data leakage.
