Tagged: estore, timthumb, timthumb security
Just an FYI, the timthumb.php file that is currently in the estore is outdated. The TimThumb Scanner plugin detected it being outdated.
You are most likely using an older version of eStore plugin. Please load a new copy of eStore:

The timthumb library gets constantly updated but that doesn’t mean we are going to update it all the time unless there is a security update in that library. I think the timthumb library had a security update in 2.7.x version. Currently eStore uses 2.8.x which is a secure version.
We monitor the release of the timthumb library and when there is a security update we will update it too. We like to jump from one stable and secure version to another stable and secure version.
I got the new updates yesterday via the autoupdate feature you have. I installed it and ran the Timthumb Scanner and it told me it was outdated.
Please refer to the 2nd part of my answer in the previous post. That scanner simply checks if the version is latest. It is not checking if the version is secure or not which is what you should be concerned about.
Fair enough… Thanks.
