I learned a few things from the original title I used, especially with using the word flaw and security in the same title. Anywho, as I explained in another comment, any data loss to me is a serious issue. I really don't like how you and others are using all these number and stats to downplay the issue of data loss, whether it's critical or not. If I come across or someone reports a plugin that allows users to lose their data without their consent, I'll use the same verbiage and language because it's unacceptable. I mean, it almost sounds like you're ok with just 0.14% of sites being impacted.

As a user, I place trust and confidence into security tools like All In One Security and Firewall to protect my site. I understand what the scanners do but I definitely don't understand the things it detects. In this case, I'm aware of what the pharma hack means and I'll take what the scanner is doing as expected behavior. I trust that it's doing its job without any negative side effects. As it turns out, that wasn't the case.

You'll never truly know how many things were removed from users databases that shouldn't have been touched.
