Committed [3772781] to Plugins SVN:
Fixed: Security. A commenter whose name contained a placeholder such as {TEXT} could make their comment run <a class="wiki" href="http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/wiki/JavaScript">JavaScript</a> for moderators viewing it while pending, and for every visitor once it was approved. Names with braces are now shown as plain text. Reported by Patchstack.

Improved: On the settings page, the preview of an addon that isn't installed described its rating structured data and one shortcode attribute as they used to work. It now matches the current addon.

Fixed: The on/off switches on the settings page showed their state by color alone and could not be used from the keyboard. They now show a cross when off and a check mark when on, and can be reached with Tab and toggled with Space. Switches in addon settings tabs get the same fix.

Committed [3698558] to Plugins SVN:
Fixed: Sending a comment again after it was stored as spam showed <a class="wiki" href="http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/wiki/WordPress">WordPress</a>'s "Duplicate comment detected" error instead of wpDiscuz's message for a rejected comment. <a class="wiki" href="http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/wiki/WordPress">WordPress</a> refuses a comment identical to one it has already stored, spam included, and that refusal was passed on to the commenter as it was. The retry now gets the rejected comment message, "Your comment was not published." by default, and nothing new is stored. The wpdiscuz_comment_rejected_response filter runs for the retry as well, with the earlier comment and a new fourth argument set to true, so a plugin that explained the first rejection can tell the retry apart. A comment that repeats a published one, or one awaiting approval, still shows the duplicate error.

Fixed: Selecting comment attachments more than once replaced the files already selected. New selections now accumulate up to the configured limit, and duplicate files are ignored.

Fixed: Comment subscriptions were looked up by matching the email address as a SQL pattern instead of comparing it exactly. Since the % and _ characters are allowed in an email address, a subscriber using such an address matched the other subscribers of the same post, received their unsubscribe link, and removed their comment thread subscriptions.
