[Bug] Minor WP core updates still run when the option is disabled in the Auto Update settings #490

Describe the bug We recently noticed that a number of websites updated to 5.8.1 automatically even though all automatic WordPress core updates were disabled. The toggle for disabling automatic minor updates no longer appears to override the default WordPress setting.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Disable all automatic core WordPress updates in Total Upkeep
  2. Install WP Downgrade
  3. Go to Settings > WP Downgrade and set the WordPress target version to 5.8
  4. Install WP Crontrol
  5. Go to Dashboard > Updates and install WordPress core 5.8
  6. Deactivate WP Downgrade, this allows the site to see that 5.8.1 is available.
  7. Go to Tools > Cron Events, find wp_version_check and click Run Now
  8. Go to Dashboard > Updates, your installation should now be running 5.8.1 instead of 5.8

Expected behavior Minor updates should not happen automatically if the option is disabled in the Total Upkeep settings.

Additional context I was able to verify that we are the problem by installing Easy Updates Manager and used that plugin to disable all automatic core updates. Core version stayed on 5.8 no matter how many times the version check cron was run.
