What to do

  1. Update to the latest version (2.0.9). Anything older than 1.6.1 has at least one known issue listed below. Dashboard → Updates, or Plugins → “update now”.
  2. If you cannot update right away, deactivate it until you can.
  3. Turn on auto-updates for it: Plugins → “Enable auto-updates” on its row.
  4. If you ran a vulnerable version and something looks off (spam pages, strange admins, redirects), run the free scan.

With WP-CLI: wp plugin get new-image-gallery --field=version shows what you run; wp plugin update new-image-gallery updates it.
