Is ZD Scribd iPaper safe? Known vulnerabilities and latest version

Status: Closed 2024-11-08
Known issues on record: 1
Unpatched in latest: 0

What to do

Replace it. A closed plugin gets no updates through WordPress, so any hole found from now on stays open.
Deactivate and delete it once you have a replacement (Plugins → Deactivate → Delete). Deleting removes its files; deactivating alone leaves them on the server.
If you ran a vulnerable version and something looks off (spam pages, strange admins, redirects), run the free scan, or have us clean it: Emergency Cleanup, $499.

With WP-CLI, once you have a replacement: wp plugin deactivate zd-scribd-ipaper && wp plugin delete zd-scribd-ipaper
