# Sensitive Data Exposure

 * I have one our our users who when they are editing products in WooCommerce is
   constantly getting blocked by WordFence.
 * This is the blocked message in the logs:
    “blocked by firewall for Yoast WordPress
   SEO <= 3.1.2 – Sensitive Data Exposure”
 * None of our other users get this – only this one person when they work from their
   home.
 * I can’t seem to find this error when I do any searches. Can someone help identify
   why she might be getting this error and how I correct?
    Thanks!

 * Hi [@nsehnert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nsehnert/)
 * When this happens again, could you please check the “Live Traffic” log for more
   details regarding this block? you can share a screenshot to my email address (
   alaa “at” wordfence “dot” com). Filtering the Live Traffic log by “Blocked By
   Firewall” might help in getting this entry faster.
 * Thanks.

 * Hi [@nsehnert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nsehnert/)
 * I’ve checked the screenshot you sent and I suggest the following:
 * – Let this user try using another browser and recheck this issue.
    – Double check
   with him to make sure he is doing the same steps just as other users. – If none
   of these helped and you have the latest version of WordPress SEO by Yoast installed
   on your website, then you can safely turn off “Yoast WordPress SEO <= 3.1.2 –
   Sensitive Data Exposure” rule under (Wordfence > Firewall > Firewall Options 
   > Advanced Firewall Options > Rules).
 * Thanks.
