LH Cache Remote Images allows you to scan a post, page, or cpt to fetch remote images; then updates its content.<\/p>\n\n

Unlike other similar plugins this plugin adds the images and updates post_content asynchronously. Thus ensuring the publishing experience is not slowed down.<\/p>\n\n

Credits<\/h3>\n\n

Thanks to Philipp Beick for responsibly disclosing an SSRF and unsafe-SQL-construction issue affecting version 1.04, addressed in 1.10.<\/p>\n\n\n

  3. That is it<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Q: Will it archive the images which are already hosted on my blog ?\nA: No, only the external images.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Full version history is maintained in CHANGELOG.md. Recent versions:<\/p>\n\n

    1.11 August 1, 2026<\/strong>\nWordPress Plugin Check compliance pass: added License headers, corrected \"Requires at least\" to match the plugin's real minimum WordPress version (5.8.1), removed a stale Domain Path pointing at a nonexistent languages folder, escaped debug output, removed a dead unused method calling a nonexistent function, added a missing direct-file-access guard, added missing text-domain arguments, and replaced discouraged parse_url()\/unlink() calls with their WordPress-API equivalents.<\/p>\n\n

    1.10 July 31, 2026<\/strong>\nSecurity fixes for an SSRF vulnerability and unsafe SQL construction responsibly disclosed by Philipp Beick, plus an additional related SSRF bypass and host-matching bypass found during review; removed unused bundled taxonomy library; added plugin_version() identity method. (Versioned 1.10, not 1.1.0, because WordPress's version comparison was treating the legacy 1.04 as newer than 1.1.0.)<\/p>\n\n

    1.04 October 08, 2017<\/strong>\nUpdated lh-copy-from-url-class.php<\/p>\n\n
