Now each shop receives one payment at a time.<br/><br/>The rest of the security and payment fixes:<br/><br/>- Late payments are collected again on busy shops. If the mint or your server was down for more than three days, a customer&#39;s payment could stay uncredited as long as new checkouts kept coming in.<br/>- One price source can no longer move fiat prices. With the other providers down, a single bad answer could shift EUR, GBP or CAD prices by up to 25 %, and the wrong rate stuck.<br/>- Backup mints are protected and looked after: removing one with open orders could hide a later payment, and money held there was never moved off retiring keysets.<br/>- A store left behind by whoever claimed setup first (with their mint and their seed) could survive a recovery-code takeover. It is now removed.<br/><br/>But the interesting result: the worst risks to a shop&#39;s money were not attackers. They were things that quietly stop working. So 0.5.9 fixes those:<br/><br/>- Automatic withdrawals work above 10,000 sats. On a mint that reserves 1–2 % for Lightning fees, every automatic payout above roughly 10k sats failed, run after run, while the money piled up at the mint.<br/>- Setup now asks where your money should go: paste your Lightning address, it is checked, and payouts happen by themselves. Or choose &#34;Not now&#34; and try it first.<br/>- Customers are never told to pay twice. Paying at the last second used to show &#34;Invoice expired, request a new one&#34;. Now the page says not to pay again, keeps checking, and turns to &#34;Payment Complete&#34; when the money arrives.<br/>- Your shop hears about a payment at once, not on the next visitor.<br/>- Alerts by email or a private Nostr DM (NIP-17) when customers can&#39;t pay, withdrawals keep failing, or a security update is out.<br/>- A printable recovery sheet: your seed words plus every mint your store has used. The seed alone doesn&#39;t tell you which mints to restore from.<br/>- No more white screens at install. Hosting problems now show a plain page with a message to send to your host.<br/><br/>One change in how you upgrade: the zip no longer has a folder of its own. Unpack it straight into your existing installation folder, keeping your data folder. If you unpack it into a new subfolder by mistake, setup notices and tells you which folder to delete.<br/>- Standalone: unpack the new zip into your installation folder, replacing the old files, keeping your data folder.<br/>- WordPress: upload the plugin and choose &#34;Replace current with uploaded&#34;.<br/><br/>The database updates itself on your first visit.<br/><br/>About the audit: Opus 5.5 with the Cloudflare security-audit skill (<a href="https://github.com/cloudflare/security-audit-skill">https://github.com/cloudflare/security-audit-skill</a>), plus separate passes for reliability, the customer at checkout, and a shop owner who has never used SSH.

If not, patching PHP is more important, go do that.<br/><br/>The most serious one was in the WordPress plugin: showing the seed phrase or downloading the database accepted any password, because the already-open admin session was the only check (but you still needed to be logged in as admin into WordPress). It now asks for your real WordPress password. MiniMax M3.1 found that one, and it is again the model that caught something the earlier scans missed.<br/><br/>The rest of the important fixes:<br/><br/>- Stranded-funds exports now reserve the money, so the same ecash cannot be handed out twice or spent while the token circulates.<br/>- The setup wizard can no longer be re-entered to reset the admin password or keep a previous claimant&#39;s server address.<br/>- Fiat pricing needs two independent sources to agree, so one bad provider cannot underprice invoices.<br/>- An interrupted wallet backup no longer leaves a full copy of the database behind.<br/>- Public token submissions are bounded, closing a request that could burn minutes of CPU.<br/>- Trusted-proxy settings can no longer name the whole internet.<br/><br/>Upgrading takes a couple of minutes and there is nothing to configure:<br/>- Standalone: upload the new files over the old ones, keeping your data folder.<br/>- WordPress: upload the plugin and choose &#34;Replace current with uploaded&#34;.<br/><br/>The database updates itself on your first visit.<br/><br/>Three audits, three models: DeepSeek 4.1 Flash 1017, Opus 5.5 and MiniMax M3.1 (Space Bunny). They found real issues at every level, including the WordPress one above.<br/><br/>What changed? We used the same models for previous audits, but this time we used the cloudflare security audit skill: <a href="https://github.com/cloudflare/security-audit-skill">https://github.com/cloudflare/security-audit-skill</a> Highly recommended, it&#39;s good.<br/><br/>👉 Download: <a href="https://github.com/jooray/cashupayserver/releases/tag/v0.5.7-alpha">https://github.com/jooray/cashupayserver/releases/tag/v0.5.7-alpha</a> 2026-10-21T18:30:00Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs08d69hl58xd5kmvc74485w9qe6epp5za83pfzc9lny8ghuta6cwqzyq7rq3klgnjqw6l8teylsghwvcews20hxshpdjuccyt9xe8ce6v65utl6wy CashuPayServer v0.5.6-alpha is out, and it&#39;s the most thoroughly reviewed release yet.<br/><br/>Three independent security audits went through CashuPayServer and its Cashu wallet library line by line. This release fixes what they found. If you take bitcoin payments with CashuPayServer, please upgrade, although no bug was remotely exploitable or critical.<br/><br/>What&#39;s new:<br/><br/>- Payment requests work with any standard Cashu wallet. Show a QR code, the customer pays, and the page turns to &#34;Paid ✓&#34; the moment the money arrives. Newer wallets also get the compact creqB format, a smaller QR code that&#39;s easier to scan.<br/>- Payments and withdrawals are much harder to break in extreme conditions.<br/>- Safer data out of the box. If your wallet database could be downloaded from the web, the dashboard tells you, and a new install can move its data to a safe place with one click.<br/><br/>Upgrading takes a couple of minutes, and there&#39;s nothing to configure:<br/>- Standalone: upload the new files over the old ones, keeping your data folder.<br/>- WordPress: upload the plugin and choose &#34;Replace current with uploaded&#34;.<br/><br/>The database updates itself on your first visit.<br/><br/>Cheap PHP hosting, no node to run, bitcoin payments in your shop.<br/><br/>About the audits: We have always run Ai audits with all the models available. This round brings DeepSeek 4.1 Flash 1017, Opus 5.5 and MiniMax M3.1 (also known as Space Bunny). All of them found real bugs previous audits/models did not find. And we have run the heavyweights on CashuPayServer before. MiniMax M3.1 was the only one that found a higher severity bug, which all previous scans missed. Since it is free on OpenCode for a few days, run your security-critical code through it.<br/><br/>👉 Download: <a href="https://github.com/jooray/cashupayserver/releases/tag/v0.5.6-alpha">https://github.com/jooray/cashupayserver/releases/tag/v0.5.6-alpha</a> 2026-10-19T19:45:00Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswpwy8rgartyw2tdcu25s4s9wja6m72t96qw58032ky3ajhad7v2gzyq7rq3klgnjqw6l8teylsghwvcews20hxshpdjuccyt9xe8ce6v65ffffps CashuPayServer v0.5.5-alpha is out.<br/><br/>If you switched your store to a different mint on 0.5.4, payments could get stuck in &#34;Processing&#34;. This release fixes it, and those payments are credited once you upgrade. It also runs on PHP 8.1 and 8.2 now, and a standalone install sitting inside a WordPress site&#39;s folder no longer answers 403.<br/><br/>WooCommerce shops can save the BTCPay plugin settings without the key being rejected, and a customer who retries paying an order gets the payment page instead of a 404.<br/><br/>The QR libraries used to load from CDNs, including on the admin page that can show your seed phrase. They ship with the app now.<br/><br/>There&#39;s also a signed emergency shutdown. If we ever find a hole that lets strangers take your money, we can publish a notice signed with a Nostr key, and installs on the affected versions stop until they&#39;re upgraded. Nothing moves your funds. If you&#39;d rather not have it, turning off the update check in Settings turns it off too.<br/><br/>Reasoning for doing this in this blog: <a href="https://juraj.bednar.io/en/blog-en/2026/09/18/ten-ai-models-vs-embargoed-core-lightning-a-case-study-of-ai-for-auditing/">https://juraj.bednar.io/en/blog-en/2026/09/18/ten-ai-models-vs-embargoed-core-lightning-a-case-study-of-ai-for-auditing/</a> (Section &#34;Signed kill switch&#34;).

We outsource our payments to &#34;convenient&#34; gateways because we&#39;re afraid of the tech stack.<br/><br/>CashuPayServer was built to kill that fear.

CashuPayServer lets you accept Lightning payments directly on your own WordPress site (or anywhere where BTCPay is supported - prestashop, ...) without asking a corporate middleman for permission.<br/><br/>Yes, it runs on your $5/month hosting that you already have.
