description

The Grid versions through 2.8.1 are affected by a command injection flaw. A remote, unauthenticated attacker may be able to run commands when the plugin is reachable over the network.

mitigation

Disable or remove The Grid on affected sites, or restrict access to trusted administrative networks while evaluating replacement options. No corrected version is recorded; do not expose affected installations to untrusted network clients.
