Plugin still flagged by Wordfence

Can I just manually update the plugin via FTP? I deactivated/uninstalled the plugin, then re-installed the new version you provided and all the settings and historical data got wiped out. Thanks.

I updated to V 9.4 manually and re-ran the scan… it’s still getting flagged. When is it going to be added back to the WP Repo?

• The Plugin “WP Cerber Security, Anti-spam & Malware Scan” has been removed from ww.wp.xz.cn.
• Type: Plugin Removed
• Plugin Name: WP Cerber Security, Anti-spam & Malware Scan
• Current Plugin Version: 9.4
• Details: Plugins can be removed from ww.wp.xz.cn for various reasons. This can include benign issues like a plugin author discontinuing development or moving the plugin distribution to their own site, but some might also be due to security issues. In any case, future updates may or may not be available, so it is worth investigating the cause and deciding whether to temporarily or permanently replace or remove the plugin. 

PLEASE HELP.

Thanks.

Hi, Li-An.
I understand the message and why it’s been removed. I was asking the plugin author if he knows when it is going to be back in the repo because the latest version is supposed to take care of the security problem, but thanks for chiming in!

Well, then I expect the developer to tell me that. He did not, hence my follow up. I already downloaded it and installed the newest version, as I mentioned higher up in this thread. Thanks.
