Hi, I hope this message finds you well and that you’re enjoying happy days with your family. Thank you for the report—we take security seriously and will address this as a priority.
Our plugin does not accept any user input on the frontend; content input is restricted to the WordPress admin area. We follow WordPress security standards by using sanitize_* functions, esc_* helpers, and context-aware escaping to enhance code security.
We will review the report and audit all input paths again. We plan to release a new version with the fix and publish a security advisory, including a changelog and upgrade notes.
We appreciate your report and will fix the issue as soon as possible. Thanks, and have a wonderful day with your family!
Best regards,
Support
