Layerslider vulnerability - Why no fix?

hi there,

this is nothing new (# Layerslider vulnerability and is really pressing according to this article:

what is the reason for the delay? is there a problem with the developer not wanting to be part of the bundle anymore? do they try to get more subscribers by not cooperating?

i am asking because i have a few websites which use that plugin. and i will have to subscribe if no update is coming out soon for x.

thanks for your help! best wishes, kai

Hey Kai,

Thanks for reaching out!

I’ll report this to our administration so that they will update the Layer Slider to the latest version. Please note that before they update the plugin to the latest version they need to test if it is compatible with our current product version.

hi @marc_a,
thanks for speeding the update up!
could you please let me know why nothing has been done on your part for many month by now?
thats why i really need to know if the update comes soon.
otherwise i would by the plugin (even though only for this update because of the security risk)
thanks again - kai

Hello Kai,

We have already reported to prioritise the slider update to our development team. There is no ETA at the moment so I would request you, please stay tuned for succeeding updates.

Thanks for understanding

hello @prakash_s,
thanks for letting me know!
stay tuned - i heard that so often from you and nothing happened…
please let men know i you recommend to buy the plugin to avoid being hacked.
in my case that means more than 5 websites (customers) i would have to buy it for. thats why i keep asking…
best wishes, kai

Hey Kai,

We will update the plugin once we already have the latest version. If you cannot wait for it, we highly recommend to purchase your own license.

Hope that helps.

hi marc, what do you mean by that? thanks, kai

Hey @iTurtle,

We will bump the issue tracker to expedite updating the Layerslider plugin in our Themeco plugin repository.

Please bear with us.
