Since today if i edit any table using CKEditor I'm getting this warning:
This CKEditor 4.22.1 version is not secure. Consider upgrading to the latest one, 4.24.0-lts.
I ran composer update, but it doesn't update this plugin.

PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS A TEMPORARY WORKAROUND

In ckeditor/config.js

add

config.versionCheck = false;

It is recommended to switch to TincyMCE for security reasons.

Read Deprecated and Removed:
CKEditor 4 (MPL license) reached its End of Life (EOL) on June 30, 2023. Since the newer CKEditor 5 is licensed under GPL, the CKEditor extension is deprecated and will be removed from next major version. It is recommended that you use TinyMCE 6 (MIT license) instead, the TinyMCE extension has been changed from extension for registered users to public extension. The FileManager extension (for registered users) nows support TinyMCE also.

CKEditor 4 (MPL license) reached its End of Life (EOL) on June 30, 2023, therefore CKEditor 4 versions released after that date (>= v4.22.0) will tell you that the older versions are not safe and ask you to buy a LTS license. You better use TinyMCE instead.
