security vulnerability in the plugin WPBackery <=8.5

Hello,
according to WordFence there is a security vulnerability in the plugin WPBackery <=8.5.
“WPBakery Page Builder for WordPress <= 8.5 – Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
The WPBakery Page Builder for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting via multiple shortcodes in all versions up to and including 8.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows authenticated attackers with access to the contributor level and above to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that are executed as soon as a user accesses an injected page.”
Even after updating to the latest Woodmart theme 8.2.7, we could not find an update for WPBakery.
When will the updated version (8.6 or 8.6.1) of WPBakery be made available by you?
Best regards
Aram
