Error in SQL syntax, Version 4.1.5

I’m seeing the below error on both blogs of mine that use this plugin. If I downgrade to 4.1.1, I don’t see the errors (but I would rather stay on latest and greatest for security). I see that this error occurred for someone here 3-4 months back in v4.1.4. Is anyone else seeing this?

• Version numbers: WordPress Version 6.0.2, plugin Version 4.1.5
• The URL to blog: nowwerecookin.org and nickifaulk.com both run this.
• Software of webserver: Apache/2.4.54
• List of other plugins used, especially plugins which modify the output, like caching or SEO plugins: Akismet, Classic Editor, Display Posts, Print PDF, Remove Noreferrer, Search Meter, Sharify, TaxoPress, Very Simple Contact Form, WP Super Cache
