An important security and maintenance release of TablePress is now available. TablePress 2.4.3 can be downloaded from the WordPress Plugin Directory and will show up as an update in the WordPress Dashboard for existing users shortly.

Updating to TablePress 2.4.3 is strongly recommend! Changes include:

• Security fix: Sanitize output of evaluated formulas (CVE-2024-9595). Thanks to Max Boll and to the Wordfence team for following responsible disclosure policies when reporting this issue!
• Bugfix: On the “Import” screen, a helpful feature pointer for new users is now shown properly again.
• Bugfix: A check for whether combining cells on the “Edit” screen is possible was not strict enough.
• Bugfix: The “Column Filter Dropdowns” feature module no longer shows duplicate entries in the dropdowns. (TablePress Pro and Max only.)
• Bugfix: The “Individual Column Filtering” feature module no longer shows duplicate entries in the dropdowns. (TablePress Pro and Max only.)
• Several external code libraries and build tools have been updated to benefit from enhancements and bug fixes.
• Cleaned up and simplified code, for easier future maintenance, to follow WordPress Coding Standards, and to offer helpful inline documentation.
