Changelog

Other
  • ### Security
  • Enforced TLS certificate validation on all licensing and update requests; the previous fallback could allow a network attacker to control the update package
  • Hardened every licensing payload against PHP object injection by restricting unserialization to plain data
  • Replaced the shared, non-expiring password protection cookie with per-visitor random tokens that expire server side and are revoked on logout or password change
  • Access passwords are now stored as a hash instead of clear text, and are excluded from settings exports
  • Custom template CSS/JS and SEO head markup now require the unfiltered_html capability
  • Visitor IP addresses are read from REMOTE_ADDR only and are no longer taken from spoofable forwarded headers
  • Analytics values are escaped before being rendered in the admin dashboard
  • Geolocation lookups now use HTTPS and can be disabled with the launchguard_enable_geolocation filter
Fixed
  • a coming soon / maintenance mode bypass that allowed any visitor to reach the site by adding an Elementor query argument or referrer to the request
Added
  • brute force throttling to the password protection endpoint
  • nonce verification and rate limiting to the public analytics tracking endpoints
  • nonce verification to the analytics data, export, migration, and site logo admin endpoints
  • a capability check to the license activation and deactivation handlers
Removed
  • the license check fallback that treated any stored value as a valid license
  • the obfuscated base64 helpers in the license base class
Improved
  • Uninstalling now drops the analytics tables so visitor data is not left behind
