WPForms Lite Accused Of Adding Backdoor. I Tested It And Was Surprised via @sejournal, @martinibuster

The Claim That WPForms Lite Inserts A BackdoorSybre Waaijer posted on X that a recent update to Awesome Motive’s WPForms Lite had inserted a backdoor into the plugin. The claim is that WPForms Lite contains an onboarding wizard that walks a user through the configuration steps. Waaijer tweeted:“Syed Balkhi (Awesome Motive) put a backdoor in WPForms Lite three weeks ago in version 2.0.0. Awesome Motive Is A Competitor To WaaijerWaaijer’s response to @BuildInBitsse noted that Awesome Motive is a competitor, as both produce an SEO plugin. This Is What HappenedI already use the WPForms Lite plugin on one of my sites and decided to test it on another one.
