**v8.1.8 Important security upgrade**
We have learned that the SQL injection vulnerability fixed in v8.1.6 has been exploited at scale since at least May 18, 2026 and so before the v8.1.6 release.
We released a new version that remove all user token access gained before v8.1.6. We also explain the attack in the changelog and the countermeasures taken by this release.
**Please upgrade to v8.1.8 as soon as possible.**
