A user with id 1 still exists.

Yes, the same happens to me too!

(Version 4.4.9) I was looking in the code, and I think I may have found the problem. In the class-itsec-lib.php, I found this code:

public static function user_id_exists( $user_id ) {
global $wpdb;
//return false if username is null
if ( $user_id == ” ) {
return false;
}
//queary the user table to see if the user is there
$user_id = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( “SELECT ID FROM " . $wpdb->users . " WHERE ID=’%s’;”, sanitize_text_field( $user_id ) ) );
if ( $user_id == $user_id ) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

It seems to me that this line “if ( $user_id == $user_id ) {” will always return true, and thus say it is found user_id=1 even if it doesn’t exists in the database table.

I looked back at the code in the older version and that code reads:

public static function user_id_exists( $user_id ) {

global $wpdb;

//return false if username is null
if ( $user_id == ” ) {
return false;
}

//query the user table to see if the user is there
$userid = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( “SELECT ID FROM " . $wpdb->users . " WHERE ID=’%s’;”, sanitize_text_field( $user_id ) ) );

if ( $userid == $user_id ) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

Hi,

Thanks for the information. I’ll make sure and share this with the developer. I’ll report back here when I know more.

Thanks,

Hello Gerroald, despite the recent updates of the error with me, there is still.

Thanks for the Support

Same problem.
No user ID 1, but iThemes detects ID 1.
Also, if I run the FIX > Save, the site makes a Logout.

I tried, on a local server, a new installation, only WordPress and iThemes, same problem.

WordPress 4.0
iThemes V. 4.4.13

Same here. Latest version of iThemes Sec. and WordPress at the moment.

Hey All,

Just an update. This has been fixed and will be in the next near future release. Apologies for the confusion.

Thanks,

Gerroald
