Your unacceptable answer about security patch

  • Hello, I have the premium version and I just saw this unacceptable answer. If you have made the patch in the premium version it means that you probably know how to make it for the free version. I find that the option you have chosen to leave your users with a security problem that you recognize is taking a major risk to the sites of people who are using your plugin in confidence.You have broken this contract of confidence in all conscience and knowledge. Offering a paid fix (upgrading to premium version is paid) goes against all the ethical principles I defend day after day for many years. It would have been honest to patch the repo version, then stop it as a free version.
    I will stop using your product immediately as soon as I find an alternative (it will be quick).
    I don’t salute you

  • Hello,

    The patch is not intended to be for premium-only. Support for this plugin (both free and paid) has been discontinued, and while I have created a patch for the (very minor) security issue, WordPress will not allow me to release the update to the plugin repository for free users because the plugin is discontinued.

    It’s a bad situation for everyone, and it’s simply due to the fact that WordPress won’t allow me to release the security patch because the plugin is closed. I’m sorry.
