 * Wordfence is sending email alerts for websites that I manage that are using this
   plugin (Anywhere Elementor) due to a vulnerability for Reflected Cross-Site Scripting.
   Here is the report link they provided in their email:
 * [https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/detail/freemius-sdk-259-reflected-cross-site-scripting-via-fs-request-get](https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/detail/freemius-sdk-259-reflected-cross-site-scripting-via-fs-request-get)
 * I am using this plugin on a lot of client websites but noticed there has not 
   been a patch for this yet. Are there any updates or more information we can expect
   in regard to this? Thank you.

 * Hi [@kspd1389](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kspd1389/)
 * This is a false positive report. Our plugin is not affected by the above-mentioned
   vulnerability. 
   We have already reported to Wordfence regarding the issue. They
   have acknowledged it and will be fixing it from their end.

 * Hi [@anandau14](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anandau14/) ,
 * Thank you for responding and the clarification. The Wordfence network still appears
   to be identifying this as a vulnerability as I’ve received several more alerts
   today even since your reply but I am hoping they get their system updated soon
   given that it is a false positive report. I am going to mark this as resolved
   for now. Thanks again.

 * Hi [@anandau14](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anandau14/),
 * I just wanted to let you know that Wordfence is still sending out these emails
   alerts, I’ve received multiple email alerts now for each website that we have
   Anywhere Elementor installed on. Some websites have generated 3 alerts for this
   particular issue. I wanted to give a heads up in case Wordfence gave you an update
   on when they are planning to update things on their end for this? Thank you.

 * This is the response I got from Wordfence

 * I am not sure about the process they follow in such cases. 
   We have already released
   an update yesterday. I think updating to 1.2.9 can fix those alerts. We have 
   removed a blank folder of freemius SDK which I think is the reason why they marked
   our plugin as affected by the recent freemius vulnerability. We removed the Freemius
   integration from our free plugin around 3 months back but a blank freemius folder
   remains there by mistake. Which was of course not harming in any way, but it 
   seems Wordfence got confused by that.
