    Hello,
    if you take a closer look at that report, it clearly states that vulnerability was found only in the premium version 6.3.1 of wpDataTables , so that premium version and the ones before that can be affected.

    The Lite/free version of our Plugin does not have these functionalities (such as SQL based tables), so Lite version was never affected. Those reports are not related to the Lite version, but they can be reported in the lite version because the resources where this information about themes or plugins vulnerabilities are stored are generated by the theme or the plugin slug. Those slugs are the same in both lite and the full version, and because of that, you get those notifications.

    The important thing is that there’s nothing to worry about. Newer versions of the wpDataTable premium don’t have these issues, ( the latest one at the time of this reply is 6.6.1) and our Lite plugin versions never did.

    Unfortunately, until wpDataTables Lite goes above version 3.4.2 these reports will indicate a false positive. The lite and the full version have the same slug (wpdatatables), and that’s why the security plugins can’t differentiate between the versions.

    I hope this helps, let us know if anything is unclear.


    Thank you.
