@ubuntuproductions thanks for reporting this. Yes, this will be fixed soon. Currently fully occupied with another project. Your patience is appreciated.
Thank you for your message? π
When you say “fixed soon” do you mean in few hours, days, weeks? I might be wrong, but this vulnerability seems pretty serious π

@ubuntuproductions Currently publishing v2.8.16 with the fix, for review by the plugins team at ww.wp.xz.cn.
Awesome @qriouslad π thank you very much. I truly understand that it must not be easy to allocate resources to this when you are fully occupied with another project, so really appreciate it π

@ubuntuproductions you’re welcome. Thank you for your understanding.
System Dashboard is a free plugin I developed in my spare time. It took quite a number of hours to get to where it is now, but I’m no longer able to spend as much focus on it as I used too. I still use it to this day for my own dev workflow.
As for the security issue’s fix, let’s wait a bit. It might take the plugin team several days to get to reviewing it. Hopefully the submitted fix is sufficient. If so, you should see an update notice (of a new version) in your wp-admin.
