[Discussion] Plex Official Security Warning

Post by pennypacker »

Received by email from Plex (below).

Given this security issue is severe enough to warrant an immediate request direct from Plex to upgrade, when will TerraMaster be releasing a version to address the issue?
Dear Plex user,
We recently received a report via our bug bounty program that there was a potential security issue affecting Plex Media Server versions 1.41.7.x to 1.42.0.x.

You’re receiving this notice because our information indicates that a Plex Media Server owned by your Plex account is running an older version of the server. We strongly recommend that everyone update their Plex Media Server to the most recent version as soon as possible, if you have not already done so.

The new version (1.42.1.10060 or later) is now available to update through your regular server management page or you can download the package from our downloads page (https://www.plex.tv/media-server-downloads/).
Thank you,
The Plex Team

This is why I'm here, I received the same email from PLEX and would like to know which version of PLEX app has the FIX that PLEX refers to?

I have Version 1.41.8.9834, So I take it there will be another release in a day or two after this version?

thanks

Ok, so what version number will have the fix, as there is an update 1.42.1.10060 already there, however, that update appeared a few days ago, prior to you clarifying today that we should wait for a further Fix . I just like to clarify the correct version number of the upcoming Fix, please.

thanks

Can we please have an update on this release? It is now a month old for a critical security vulnerability in the existing app.
