Wordfence version 6.2.4 is here!

Greetings all. We have a point release for Wordfence today, version 6.2.4. Please update as soon as you are able.

• Improvement: Scan times for very large sites with huge numbers of files are greatly improved.
• Improvement: Added a configurable time limit for scans to help reduce overall server load and identify configuration problems.
• Improvement: Email-based logins are now covered by “Don’t let WordPress reveal valid users in login errors”.
• Improvement: Extended rate limiting support to the login page.
• Fix: Fixed a case where files in the site root with issues could have them added multiple times.
• Fix: Improved IP detection in the WAF when using an IP detection method that can have multiple values.
• Fix: Added a safety check for when the database fails to return its max_allowed_packet value.
• Fix: Added safety checks for when the configuration table migration has failed.
• Fix: Added a couple rare failed login error codes to brute force detection.
• Fix: Fixed a sequencing problem when adding detection for bot/human that led to it being called on every request.
• Fix: Suppressed errors if a file is removed between the start of a scan and later scan stages.
• Fix: Addressed a problem where the scan exclusions list was not checked correctly in some situations.
