Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I already inform you with the previous ticket with the following reply:
- https://toolset.com/forums/topic/vulnerability-in-wp-views-using-vulnerable-version-of-select2-v4-0-3/#post-2844080

Important facts:
- It is not exposed to anonymous users
- Inputs are controlled and sanitized - so you will not have to worry
- No escapeMarkup: false usage with user input

We already worked on this issue and updated the select2 version and the same updated hotfix version we suppose to release in one or two weeks. Probably next week if everything goes and works as expected.
