 * I received a notification today via wordfence that the ‘The Plugin “Hide Shipping
   Method For WooCommerce” has a security vulnerability’ and ‘Vulnerability Severity:
   4.3/10.0 (Medium) [Vulnerability Information](https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/f8991817-b280-474e-9120-550bacb07066?source=plugin)‘.
 * Apparently there is a Missing authorization for the plugin.
 * Could this please be checked?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-security-vulnerability-notification%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * We’re getting the same wordfence warnings. 
   Any solutions ahead soon? Is it advised
   to deactivate the plugin for now?
