Unfortunately, the bug is in any bad laws that permit software patents, rather than software like CakePHP. At least CakePHP is public, so it has been reviewed by many people - including IBM publications IIRC - and any problems will be addressed by a community instead of one small software house. Reality applies to all things, including an aging custom MVC framework. That could also fall under attack from "submarine" software patents, unless I missed it getting some certificate of patent-free-ness from somewhere. Just because it hasn't been attacked yet won't help its defence if it does get attacked (sadly). I can't see how using CakePHP would *increase* someone's risk from patent trolls if they already use a similar system.
