[Plugin Vulnerabilities]

The changelog for version 1.9.2.2 is missing any mention that there was a security vulnerability fixed. That is a reoccurring issue with Awesome Motive.

One reason why it is important to disclose security fixes in the changelog is so that others vet the changes to make sure they are complete. That clearly wasn’t done by Awesome Motive or Wordfence, as a quick check of the plugin shows it is still missing capability checks on other AJAX accessible functions.

Making this all worse is that the Security Reviewer on the Plugin Review Team is an Awesome Motive employee.

It would be great if you followed up with Awesome Motive and Wordfence on why they didn’t make sure the issue was fully addressed and how they are going to improve to avoid that happening again.
