In the latest update from the Elixir community, there are several noteworthy developments. A new CVE has been introduced under the EEF's CNA program, targeting an Erlang zip traversal vulnerability. Additionally, the release of Phoenix MacroComponents has been delayed to maximize its potential. Supabase has launched Multigres, a new proxy reminiscent of Vitess for scaling Postgres databases to petabyte size. The community is also witnessing a rise in implementations of MCP server for Phoenix and Plug, which includes several new projects like Phantom, HermesMCP, ExMCP, Vancouver, and Excom. A recent blog post highlighted that Erlang was the only language that managed to remain stable under extreme load testing, outperforming six other languages. Also teased is LiveDebugger v0.3.0, which will provide Firefox extension support and improved debugging features. These updates reflect the dynamic nature and ongoing innovations within the Elixir ecosystem.
