Description
I have this issue where a plugin mysteriously installed itself. Seems unthinkable but found others on the support forum for this plugin reported the same.
How is this even possible?
Thanks

Hi @webformation,
Welcome to WordPress Trac! Trac is used for tracking issues with the WordPress Core software.
If you have a concern about a plugin potentially violating the WordPress.org plugin guidelines, you can report it by contacting the plugin team via email plugins@wordpress.org
.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Update: Found there was a reference to the plugin being installed and activated together with the latest Litespeed Cache plugin without advance notification or permission from admins. Seems a breach of user agreement with plugin developer.
