 * I installed WP Pipes yesterday. Great plugin but I got an email this morning 
   from my host:
 * This concerns the following vulnerabilities:
 * XSS vulnerability in Joomla
    /home/digitalsm/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-
   pipes/includes/form/fields/url.php
 * XSS vulnerability in Joomla
    /home/digitalsm/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-
   pipes/includes/form/fields/email.php
 * Not sure why it’s identified as Joomla issue when it obviously isn’t – but any
   thoughts as to why your plugin is considered vulnerable? Is there a fix/update
   due?
 * Thanks

 * Hi digitalsmithy,
 * WP Pipes was converted from our other Joomla product, that is obGrabber. In next
   versions, we will try to remove all things which relate to Joomla.
 * Best Regards!
