 * I’ve received an email from WordPress Toolkit:
 * > WordPress Toolkit has detected known vulnerabilities on WordPress sites under
   > your care. It is strongly recommended to update or disable vulnerable assets
   > on these sites. You can also configure WordPress Toolkit to perform automatic
   > actions when vulnerabilities are detected. The following vulnerabilities need
   > your attention because they have to be addressed manually:
   > WordPress wpDataTables plugin <= 3.4.1 – Multiple SQL Injection (SQLi) vulnerabilities
 * The latest version appears to be 2.1.28, which we are running. I can’t see a 
   version greater than this.
 * Is this a false positive by WordPress Toolkit, or does this relate to the premium
   version of wpDataTables?

 * Hey Dave,
 * Thank you for reaching out to us.
 * This vulnerability relates to the premium version of wpDataTables. All versions
   before 3.4.1 were affected, but this vulnerability was solved with later releases.
 * Lite versions were never affected, but they are being detected since they share
   the same slug. When Lite updates to a version above 3.4.1 these notices will 
   not be sent anymore.
 * Kind regards!

 * Hi wpDataTables
 * Are you able to update the Lite version to a version above 3.4.1 soon, as I get
   daily reports and emails about the vulnerability, because it is based on the 
   number being below 3.4.1. That would be much appreciated.
 * I understand the lite version wasn’t affected, but it is annoying to get these
   emails about it.
 * Regards
