Issue Found 25 juni 2025Critical * Details Plugin Name: Instagram Feed Pro EliteCurrent Plugin Version: 6.8.1 * Smash Balloon: Instagram Feed Pro Software Type: PluginSoftware Slug: instagram- feed-proAffected Version: <= 6.8.0Patched Version: 6.8.1 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Smash Balloon flagged as vulnerable despite patched version](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smash-balloon-flagged-as-vulnerable-despite-patched-version/) * Thread Starter [dropshot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dropshot/) * (@dropshot) * [1 year, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smash-balloon-flagged-as-vulnerable-despite-patched-version/#post-18520032) * Hi [@wfpeter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wfpeter/) * Thank you for following up, and sorry for the delay. * Just to clarify the timeline a bit: * When I first received the critical vulnerability warning, I had the _Instagram Feed Pro Personal_ version installed. Due to a license change on Smash Balloon’s end, I couldn’t update that version any longer, so I installed _Instagram Feed Pro Elite_ instead — version 6.8.1, which should be the patched one, and then removed the _Instagram Feed Pro Personal_ version. * After switching to the Elite version, Wordfence continued to flag the plugin — this time under the new name — still identifying a critical vulnerability. So it seemed like the scan had transferred the alert from the old Pro Personal version to the new Elite one, despite the latter using the patched version. * Interestingly, without any further changes on my end, the alert was suddenly gone two days later — no more warnings and no trace in the scan results. So it looks like it may have resolved itself, possibly after updated signature data on your side? * Could this have been caused by overlapping slugs or naming conventions between the different “Pro” versions on Smash Balloon’s side — or something cached in the scan engine? Just speculating, but would love to hear your thoughts. * Thanks again for your help! * Best regards, * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Smash Balloon flagged as vulnerable despite patched version](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smash-balloon-flagged-as-vulnerable-despite-patched-version/) * Thread Starter [dropshot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dropshot/) * (@dropshot) * [1 year, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/smash-balloon-flagged-as-vulnerable-despite-patched-version/#post-18504283) * Hi [@wfpeter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wfpeter/) * Thank you for your reply. * It’s a bit confusing with Smash Balloons all different names and slugs. Not very surprising if that messes things up. * Maybe I wasn’t clear enough but my plugin is: * Plugin Name: Instagram Feed Pro Elite Current Plugin Version: 6.8.1 * Details: To protect your site from this vulnerability, the safest option is to deactivate and completely remove “Instagram Feed Pro Elite” until a patched version is available. * I don’t know if the Elite version is another plugin? * There was a free version still in place, when first scan ran that detected this vulnerability. Both Pro and Free was detected as critical. The Pro version is updated and the Free is uninstalled. * If the scan is locked with this info is it something I can clear to run a new scan? * Thanks! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Notification - Custom Notifications and Alerts for WordPress] Not sending updates alerts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-sending-updates-alerts/) * Thread Starter [dropshot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dropshot/) * (@dropshot) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-sending-updates-alerts/#post-12098144) * Update. * Notifications is sending again.
