If you are still using WF-Sections v1+ and v2+ then I suggest that you read this please.
It has come to my attention that there is a few very bad security exploits that some people could use to gain access to your website. I suggest that all users of this module should either:
1. Deactivate the module for the time being (recommended) or..
2. Renaming XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/modules/wfsections/ratefile.php and print.php.
I am now in the process of doing a full audit of all the WF-Sections code and closing these and all possible security risks that may arise in the future.
I will keep you all posted on an update.
