    Hello I’m receiving emails from a script on my hosting.
    Can you please explain what it means please ?
    Thank you.

    ‘/home/client/public_html/domainame.com/wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/updraftplus.php’
    # Script version check [OLD] [WP UpdraftPlus Ext v1.12.17 < v1.12.20]

    ‘/home/client/public_html/domainame.com/wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/includes/phpseclib/Net/SFTP.php’
    # Regular expression match = [symlink\s*\(]

    Hi,

    The first section of the message:

    ‘/home/client/public_html/domainame.com/wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/updraftplus.php’
# Script version check [OLD] [WP UpdraftPlus Ext v1.12.17 < v1.12.20]

    appears to show that you are using an older version of UpdraftPlus.

    The section section:

    ‘/home/client/public_html/domainame.com/wp-content/plugins/updraftplus/includes/phpseclib/Net/SFTP.php’
# Regular expression match = [symlink\s*\(]

    is an indication that the script has found a piece of code that uses symlinks. This is often flagged by security software as symlinks can be used in viruses. However, in this case, this is an intended part of UpdraftPlus, and can be ignored.
