Hi!
The “Really Simple SSL” plugin displayed an alert related to the Newspaper theme:
https://really-simple-ssl.com/vulnerability/6e44ba61-79db-456e-a4cf-e6a37129839a/
Do you have any position about it? How should we proceed to ensure more security?
Hi,
You need to update the theme to the latest version 12.4
Please make a full backup to all files and database => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAJXrSI-dDA
Here you can find information about the changes that have occurred in each update over time https://tagdiv.com/newspaper/
I recommend that you update the theme manually https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ via FTP/cPanel/File Manager, also if possible disable extra plugins during the theme update to avoid any problems that may arise and make sure that you have activated the tagDiv Standard pack plugin to keep the website’s look. You can try to update the theme on a staging website.
After you update the theme, you need to update the theme plugins too.
In the worst cases, the settings in the theme panel may be lost (there have been isolated cases), in these cases, after the theme plugins that were previously used are activated, you will have to use a backup for the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria!
When I received this alert I had already updated the theme to version 12.4…
Hi,
From what I can see, this plugin does not correctly detect the plugin version, so here it says that the problem is solved in version 2.7 -> https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/4eafe111-8874-4560-83ff-394abe7a803b, so you should not worry.
Thank you!
