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.

This really isn’t viable as WireGuard clients are just that, single device per client connection, what if someone started watching/listening content on their phone then all of sudden wanted to switch over to their TV or streaming device without having to go through a lot of hoops?

I opted to reverse proxy Jellyfin with Traefik however have fail2ban setup blocking every IP and only whitelisting the known users, added bonus of hiding Jellyfin’s default login form and required Keycloak for SSO.

What if they watch from their phones cell data or while traveling?

Jellyfin thankfully lets you download content offline alternatively they just text me the IP and I whitelist it then blacklist it a week later, granted if I remember.
