Hello and thank you for your attention.

I have manually removed the malware on one website and I’m in the process of repairing website number two. I’m happy that you were on the case fast, but if you tested your plugin properly before you released it, this wouldn’t have been an issue. But it’s good to see that you are taking the massive security risk seriously and that you patched it early.

The plugins were on automated update, so that is the reason why I didn’t see the patch. I’m sorry about the misinformation about you not having patched it yet.

Thank you also for your fast reply. Have a good day.
