WordPress Firewall 2 seems to be blocking the multi-file uploader program

    I have version 1.3 of your plugin installed on a WP 3.4.2 site and every time I try to use the multi-file uploader program to upload an image or embed an existing one from the media library into my pages it fails to work.

    I get a notification saying that “WordPress Firewall has detected and blocked a potential attack!”

    The Web Page listed is as follows:
    sandbox.theweboasis.com/cloverdalechurch/wp-admin/media-upload.php?type=file&tab=library&post_id=49

    It says “Warning: URL may contain dangerous content!” after that

    The Offending Parameter is attachments[273][post_title] = Mens-ministry-logo-300×189.

    I am just trying to upload a freaking image and it won’t let me. I also cannot embed an existing one. This is not a malicious attack; it’s me and this problem is keeping me from being able to produce the website.

    Help!

    I don’t know if this could open your wordpress to specific attacks,
    but you can solve this error adding in WordPress Firewall 2 settings page the value:

    attachments[*][post_title]

    in the Whitelisted Pages => Form Variable field
