Hi,
the vulnerability linked here refers to a specific component (JMSSink) which is not configured or activated by SmartFoxServer, therefore it has no impact on SmartFoxServer's security.

Cheers

Okay thanks for the reply!

But, is there a plan to upgrade the library as it is pretty old now and end of life.
