[Plugin: Audio Player] Is this a HACKED version??

  • Why are there two versions that read identically from the description, while this one has a different (and strange) name?

    I don’t know what it does, but it definitely doesn’t work, because I did try it on a test install – it installs with the strange name, which the plugin doesn’t itself know about on the settings screen.

    CAN AN EXPERIENCED PERSON CHECK IF THIS IS A POISONED SCRIPT?

  • Checking it now.

    Can you describe – in detail – what you are seeing as the problem?

    I just installed it on 3.3 and it looks fine.

    And what’s this other named one?

    1. Everything on the plugin site for this plugin is an exact duplicate of the other plugin, which is ALSO called “Audio Player”, down to the version numbers. Just do a search from the dashboard for Audio Player.
    2. The name has been changed of the zip archive and the path must have been changed too.
    3. The size is different, but all the files inside are the same size – it may only be the difference in the file path that makes the archive size different.
    4. It doesn’t work upon install. It MAY work if you correct the path to the plugin in the Settings area.

    I had just been noting some of the security alerts – I may have over-reacted to a badly configured archive :-}

    But it seems very odd that the author would create another plugin entry and do nothing but change the name to a nonsense name and then do it wrong. I’m wondering if his account was one of those that got hacked but nothing was ever done with it and then all the passwords were reset.
