Update – selecting the plugins individually from the plugins page to update worked in both learning mode and with the firewall enabled. I was using the update core function before unsuccessfully.
Hi rbarron,
I’m sorry but I’m a little bit confused about which way you are using to update the plugins that results in this “403 Forbidden page”? I mean from (WordPress Dashboard > Updates) or (WordPress Dashboard > Plugins)?
Also sharing a screenshot showing this “403 Forbidden page” would be helpful.
Thanks.

Will send details when a new update is available.
I can confirm this behavior and perhaps add some detail. Running WordPress 4.7 on all sites. I admin a system that comprises 3 MU installations and 3 Stand-alone installations.
Updating from the “UPDATES” page, not from the “Plugins” page.
Problem occurs on STAND-ALONE installations bulk updating from “UPDATES” page.
Bulk update of 4 plugins, 2 plugins.
Updating individual plugins from “Plugin” page works fine.
MU installations bulk update just fine for entire installation and from individual sites. This is the opposite of the problem I would expect. ??
