Latest update and security

  • Hi,

    I see that the latest updates (“Disallow backups or logs directories from being outside of wp-content directory for security purposes”) prevents from backing-up outside the WordPress installation. I fail to see this as “more secure”: if a website gets hacked, the attacker will also potentially gain access to the backups since they are now in wp-content… Why not leave the choice to the user?
