· opgehaald 09:08

Simon Willison ships Datasette 1.0a39 and stable 0.65.4 (11 Sep) — security fixes for public instances that mix public/private tables. Audit with Claude Fable 5.1, GPT-5.6, GPT-6 Astra; frontier-model security reviews become standard for Datasette.

On 11 Sep 2026 Simon Willison released Datasette 1.0a39 (alpha line) and 0.65.4 (stable) as security patches. Anyone running Datasette on the public web — especially instances that mix public and private tables — should upgrade. After reports from Sevban Dönmez, Alex Garcia and Willison audited Datasette with Claude Fable 5.1, GPT-5.6, and GPT-6 Astra, then spent nearly a week pairing on tests and fixes (one person writes failing tests, the other implements). They plan to keep frontier-model security audits in the Datasette development workflow.
