 * I tried to add my comments on this initially to another post which was expressing
   the exact same problem that we are having, but you removed my comments and told
   me to start a new topic for some strange reason. Anyway, here it is.
 * We are experiencing exactly the same problem as [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-vulnerability-187/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/security-vulnerability-187/).
   Yesterday we discovered a site had been hacked and the file to allow access to
   our site had come through the /uploads/cpo_temp folder. We cleaned up the whole
   system and removed the hacked files, but this morning another exploit had been
   uploaded to the same folder.
 * Obviously we are aware that a file being in a folder does not necessarily mean
   that the plugin related to that folder is vulnerable. However, we host 1 other
   website that is using UNI CPO, and on running an Imunify AV scan on it this morning,
   we discovered that that one has also been hacked, and the same file is in the/
   uploads/cpo_temp. None of the other 50+ sites we are hosting have been hit, and
   it seems like an unlikely coincidence that the only 2 sites that have been affected
   are those running UNI CPO, unless there is an issue with the plugin.
 * I would really appreciate it if you could look into this, and not just remove
   my message again to try to make it look like there is nothing wrong.

 * Sorry by the way, I can see that you didn’t remove my message, it was a forum
   moderator. I misunderstood this. I would be grateful for any help you can offer
   to help resolve this.
