Happy St. Patrick Day/Weekend from Ireland 🍀 🙂
It’s been a quiet week, and this is good, so just 3 items on the agenda this morning.
#1 – Vulnerability: Anti-Malware and Brute-Force Firewall
If you’re running Shield, there wouldn’t be any need to run another security plugin, but just in case you are…
How will I know I’m okay?
Upgrade the plugin to v4.23.56+
What’s the risk?
Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution: 9/10 severity.
