I need to uninstall this old insecure mod: Aeva ~ Auto-Embed Video & Audio   v7.2

But I don't have the original package. Anyone know where I can get it?

Try asking in the official support thread for that mod.

Thanks, I think I got it. With some digging I managed to find the file name Aeva-Lite-7.2.zip [nofollow].

With that I managed to find a (dead) link to the mod here.
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=977

Then archive.org [nofollow] to the rescue! I was able to download it from the cache.

Maybe there should be a proper way to deprecate mods on here so that the old versions are still available (maybe a warning about using them). It can be kind of nerve racking if you lose a package.  :-\

unless you deleted the package from your packages folder it should still be in there

as for removing mods, when there is a security issue they are removed and a note is usually posted in the support thread
