 * Hi [@alexd0001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexd0001/),
 * Thank you for getting in touch, we do appreciate your time.
 * The root cause was solved within 48 hours of the issue being reported to us. 
   Unfortunately, some sites were still effected due to a public disclosure being
   released before all users could update.
 * Since then, we have released various updates to cleanup any marker fields that
   were exploited. This is an automatic process which is run when updating the basic
   plugin.
 * In most cases, exploited fields should be cleared by the latest updates. Of course,
   there are some patterns which we are not yet aware of, and it is not possible
   to account for all potential snippets which were stored in the markers.
 * If you are affected, it is important to reach out to us [on our website](https://www.wpgmaps.com/contact-us/),
   so that we can take a closer look at your marker data, and provide you with assistance
   in clearing any affected markers.
