There is no way to disable “Security check XML-RPC Enabled”. Apologies for the late response, please see: https://blog.wpscan.com/2021/01/25/wordpress-xmlrpc-security.html This doesn’t answer the question unfortunately. I want to disable this particular “vulnerability” check completely. Hi, You can simply ignore the vulnerability so that it won’t be reported. See screenshot here: https://ibb.co/L8v7nn3 A one star review really hurts our plugin 🙁 I think it is very unfair for simply not being able to disable a security check. Thanks, Ryan
