What changed in this version
Version 9.0.22 2026-08-31
- FIX: Delayed plugin updates now stay in the list when the WordPress updates cron runs outside the user's scheduled automatic-update time, ensuring updates remain scheduled based on their initial first-time occurrence.
- TWEAK: Updated some affected code fragments to satisfy the WordPress.Security.NonceVerification.Recommended PHPCS rule.
Version 9.0.21 2026-05-13
- SECURITY: Fix a non-persistent reflected XSS vulnerability due to a missing validation and output escaping on the "paged" URL argument. This could allow an attacker, who persuaded you to click a personally-crafted link to your site's dashboard whilst you were logged in, to once run harmful JavaScript code. Thanks to Dmitrii Ignatyev for finding and responsibly disclosing this issue.
- TWEAK: Improved the delay updates feature to record the timestamp of the first occurrence of available plugin, theme, or core updates early, when their associated transient option is updated.
- TWEAK: Corrected improper usage of esc_html_e when preceded by echo
- TWEAK: Added missing direct file access protection check for 'ABSPATH' to prevent unauthorized access.
- TWEAK: Get rid of the "implicitly marking parameter $logger as nullable is deprecated" deprecation warning
- TWEAK: Suppress false positive WordPress.WP.I18n.TextDomainMismatch warning due to different plugin slugs in free and premium versions.
Version 9.0.20 2025-12-08
- REFACTOR: Safeguard the calls to PHP's unserialize function by specifying the "allow_classes" parameter to false to prevent code from being loaded and executed due to object instantiation and autoloading
- TWEAK: Early processing of external update logs is necessary to resolve the issue of the shutdown function being left out when a severe error happens during an auto/manual update through WP-CLI
- TWEAK: Enhance the notifications to signify the introduction of other plugins that belong to the same plugin family and to align with the new branding/links
- TWEAK: Ensure all translation functions are called during the WordPress "init" action or later. Invoking translation functions before the "init" action would have led to no translations being loaded, resulting in the original text being returned.
- TWEAK: Remove seasonal (new year, summer, spring and plugin collection) sale notices
Version 9.0.19 2024-11-12
- FIX: Misreporting of plugin's update statuses in notification emails, which were labeled "success" instead of the appropriate designation of "failed"
- TWEAK: Improve the strategy for using an associative array to filter option default values, aiming to safeguard existing defaults from removal and to prevent the introduction of non-relevant options
- TWEAK: The notification email should omit any "failed" update status for plugins, themes and translations if they lack the corresponding name and/or version number
- TWEAK: Improve updates-check anonymisation and randomisation, stripping out further unnecessary data
- TWEAK: Replace unnecessary calls to maybe_unserialize
Version 9.0.18 2024-07-10
- FIX: Couldn't reactivate plugins due to plugin dependency issues (Premium)
- TWEAK: Fixed spelling errors in the repo
- TWEAK: Force automatic updates can now be performed without the user being given full update capabilities. Prior to this, in order to successfully force the automatic updates the user had to have core, plugin and theme capabilities
- TWEAK: Split multiple sentences into separate translation calls.
- TWEAK: Update the composer package yahnis-elsts/plugin-update-checker for PHP 8.2 compatibility
- TWEAK: Plugin reactivations are now carried out in a specific sequence, with plugins lacking dependencies being reactivated first, followed by those with dependencies (Premium)
