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.

I've been using a reverse proxy on a Hetzner VPS pointing at my home plex server for years without issue. Maybe this only applies to people running the actual Plex software on a Hetzner VPS?

Yeah, your home server is still able to reach plex.tv so there's no problem there.

It's people actually hosting there that got screwed over.
