Plex has notified some of its users on Thursday to urgently update their media servers due to a recently patched security vulnerability.

The company has yet to assign a CVE-ID to track the flaw and didn't provide additional details regarding the patch, only saying that it impacts Plex Media Server versions 1.41.7.x to 1.42.0.x.

There's the story but there's not much tea.

I'm guessing there were just enough complaints and Hetzner refused to take anything down.

Really bizarre to license people self-hosting software and then refuse them from hosting it in certain places over what content they choose to put up.

I wonder if they'll just roll through all the VPS now.
