 * Hi [@mangoman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mangoman/) – this vulnerability
   was rated as low severity by Patchstack with no action needed for users.
 * But we should fix this and we will! I have made some preliminary fixes and I’ll
   work with [@nodleredoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nodleredoy/) to get
   this out soon.
