    Hi! Please ensure that there are no “Must-Use” or “Drop-ins” plugins installed on the website.

    Hi Gregory
    There were no “Must-Use” or “Drop-ins” plugins installed when the test was done on the staging site, except aaa-wp-cerber.php of course.
    Thanks for looking at this.

    I confirm the issue. We’re investigating it.

    For those desperate for a quick and simple patch to fix this problem do the following edit:
    In WP-Cerber v8.9.3 cerber-load.php change line 2806 from:
    global $cerber_act_status;
    to:
    global $cerber_act_status, $cerber_been_here_before;
    and change line 2809 from:
    wp_clear_auth_cookie();
    to:

    		if (!$cerber_been_here_before) {
			$cerber_been_here_before = true;
			wp_clear_auth_cookie();
		}

    This still allows the cookies to be cleaned up without the loop of death happening.
    Warning! Make sure you do not do a Site Integrity scan or have any scans scheduled any time after changing this file or you will have problems because the file will be quarantined!
