hi: We are trying to fix this issue. and we need to confirm one more thing:
Do we need to release a new version of APISIX？ Here is the list: 1. master branch 2. `2.12`: the latest version of APISIX 3. `2.10`: the LTS version of APISIX I think it is a security issue. If your answer is YES too, then we need to fix them all. What is your opinion?
