Yes that version is being worked upon.
Thank you for the response Jacob, good to know. I have a client that uses WP Photo Album Plus and happy to hear they do not have to change to something else and a secure fixed version is in the works.
You may try this intermediate development version:
https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wp-photo-album-plus.8.1.00.004.zip
Keep in mind it is a dev version, not a release, however if you test this version, i will give you max support.
I do not know if this relates to my problem. My hosting company in NZ has disabled my IP address due to what they believe is a vulnerability in WP Photo Album Plus version 8.0.06.004
They specifically refer to the following files:
/js/wppa-spheric.js
/js/wppa-zoom.js
/js/wppw-ajax-front.js
/js/wppa-slideshow.js
/js/wppa-utils.js
Is it possible to replace with an earlier version which does not have this problem.
