Odaily Planet Daily reports that Bitcoin News posted on X that BTCPay Server has released version 2.4.5, strengthening Lightning and LNURL security and improving invoice generation performance. The release makes Tor optional in Docker deployments, limits the exposure of the public Lightning API, and removes several deprecated or poorly maintained integrations. All server administrators are advised to update, while operators who rely on Tor or affected integrations should review the deployment changes first. Plugin Builder, which was suspended after a server was compromised, has reopened. Build jobs now run in temporary isolated sandboxes, with new security controls including build output verification, administrator audit logs, and alerts for new accounts and builds.
