AdGuard Home Updates & Release Notes

They say: don’t fix it if it’s not broken. But what if it is, in fact, broken? Like the cache we may have accidentally messed up during the last update? For such cases, there are hotfixes! Make sure to install today’s update in order to fix the cache on your AdGuard Home.

🔒 This update gives AdGuard Home a solid security upgrade — think of it as tightening the locks and double-checking the doors.

We’ve fixed a critical vulnerability affecting DNS-over-QUIC and DNS-over-HTTPS that could put your DNS privacy at risk. The gap is now closed, and your encrypted traffic is back to traveling through a properly armored tunnel.

We also updated Go to the latest version, sweeping out known vulnerabilities in its libraries.

As with everything in life, the best things are only the best because they stand out from the mundane. Without regular there would be no exceptional.

… all these words to say that this AdGuard Home update is the boring one, with mostly bug fixes and security updates so that the next time we add something new, it would feel fresh and exciting!

We are releasing this hotfix to address a recently discovered critical vulnerability that could allow users to bypass authentication and gain full access to AdGuard Home without valid credentials. We strongly recommend updating your AdGuard Home clients immediately.

The first release of the year is always important — it sets the tone for the months ahead 📆 The way we kick things off in 2026 may not be flashy, but it’s a solid mix: the new way of handling TLS certificate updates, a couple of other, minor new features, some configuration changes, a couple of key fixes, and the usual security update. Stay tuned for more goodies to come!

Fast approaching summer promises everyone its warmth, and all kinds of bugs are crawling from under the rocks and twigs to enjoy the sun 🌞. Here's a patch to make sure that they stay in the grass and nowhere near AdGuard Home.

As promised in the notes for the previous release, this update brings some quality-of-life improvements as well as a few bug fixes 🔧.

AdGuard Home v0.107.69

AdGuard Home v0.107.69 is here — just a quick pit stop to fix two pesky bugs that tried to sneak past us. No new features this time, but everything should now run a bit smoother (and those bugs have been shown the door).

Let's get “the usual” out of the way: we’ve made some security updates, as we always do, and even managed to make do without any bug fixes this time, for better or for worse. But let’s focus on the main course: new option to enable and disable DNS rewrite rules 🚦

This was one of the earlier feature requests, and we are happy to finally deliver. You can enable and disable DNS rewrite rules all at once or do so on an individual rewrite basis — both by editing YAML files or via UI.

Release notes

You may have the best software in the world, but if people can’t access it, it’s as good as useless. This is why in today’s update we made it a priority to fix a couple of authentication errors — so that you can always log in and use AdGuard Home to its fullest. Couple it with the usual security updates and a pinch of other changes, and you have v0.107.66 on your hands! 🙌

Bugfixes update

Unlike with chickens and eggs, with bugs and bugfixes, unfortunately, the bugs always come first. At least the new update is here to fix them all! 🥚🐔 Today we have bugfixes for every taste: security bugfixes, cache responses TTL bugfixes, even DNSCrypt certificates bugfixes. And you don't even have to choose — you can have them all with this new version of AdGuard Home.

Many claim to be client-oriented; we're proud to say that AdGuard Home is $client-oriented, as in this update we've fixed (among others) the bug that prevented the rules containing the client modifier from working. 👥 We have also improved AdGuard Home's security by updating the Go version to shore up some vulnerabilities, as usual.

If you are reading through these release notes, you must be a true power user of AdGuard Home, as this update isn’t the most flashy one. There are no exciting new features, but there are patches to Go vulnerabilities, UI and docker updates, and a couple of bugfixes.

This hotfix addresses the bug that was introduced with the previous update, namely the bug that prevented users from entering anything into the search box in the Query log. We also took this opportunity to include another fix for the incorrect functioning of the client modifier.
