Fixed in the next release.

In vault/core/model/settings/vw_special_prefixid/vw.php, find and remove the following:

Code:

if (!$this->require_update($item)) { continue; }

That is the code that causes this error and it is not needed for the proper function of this setting.

I've done some tests and this does not mean the return of the Infinite Deferment Vulnerability. Rather, this bug shows that the vulnerability no longer works. You will only get +1 request per request rather than +X000 requests per request.

There were some other changes I was able to make to the deferment system so that similar errors only appear once per upgrade until they are fixed, starting with 4.0.9. This was the intended design of the new deferment system in RC 5, but I saw that it was not properly implemented.
