    Greetings all. We have a point release for Wordfence today, version 6.2.3. Please update as soon as you are able.

    • Improvement: Reworked blocking for IP ranges, country blocking, and direct IP blocking to minimize server impact when under attack.
    • Improvement: Live traffic better indicates the action taken by country blocking when it redirects a visitor.
    • Improvement: Added support for finding server logs to the Diagnostics page to help with troubleshooting
    • Improvement: Whitelisted StatusCake IP addresses
    • Improvement: Updated GeoIP database.
    • Improvement: Disabling Wordfence now sends an alert.
    • Improvement: Improved detection for uploaded PHP content in the firewall.
    • Fix: Eliminated memory-related errors resulting from the scan on sites with very large numbers of issues and low memory.
    • Fix: Fixed admin page layout for sites using RTL languages.
    • Fix: Reduced overhead of the dashboard widget.
    • Fix: Improved performance of checking for whitelisted IPs.
    • Fix: Changes to the default plugin hello.php are now detected correctly in scans.
    • Fix: Fixed IPv6 warning in the dashboard widget.

    Hi, Wordfence update does not accept Max CDN IP addresses with / and . like 64.125.102.32/27 can anyone solve or help?

    I notice a file exception Options, to be excluded from scan, now appears for wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/GeoIPv6.dat. Is this correct to allow the exception? I only found it while perusing files with potential malware, and so I’m inclined to delete the exception unless the exception is intentional and originating from WF.

    Please advise…
