Recent update’s mass user-agent banning
-
Hi WPMU,
after updating your Defender plugin to its recent version (3.3.0) there’s been a mass outbreak of user-agent banning for my websites.It seems that somehow the plugin is flagging normal users as user agent’s “considered to be a bad bot which may harm the site”.
The user agent banning option is enabled without anything on the blacklist. No changes there. Only after the latest update this issue popped up.
Rolling back to 3.2.0 solved this issue. Please investigate, as this is a big one and possible blocking a lot of users from sites which have lastest Defender installed.
