WordPress Vulnerability Report — October 9, 2024

Since last week, 182 new vulnerabilities emerged in the WordPress ecosystem including 177 plugins and 5 themes. 45 of the vulnerable plugins remain unpatched!

Unfortunately, cyberattacks are increasing in volume and sophistication. They’re also increasingly aimed at small to mid-sized businesses.

Along with poor user account security, vulnerable plugins & themes are one of the main reasons WordPress websites get hacked, so run those updates.

If this seems overwhelming, talk to us about a Website Care Plan.

How Do I Update WordPress?

Run a full backups of your website using the backup plugin you have installed -or- using the backup feature your web host provides.

Ideally you test major functions – like ecommerce, elearning, membership functionality on a staging server first. If you site is “heavily” customized, you should also test in a staging environgment first.

Perform your updates in the order of WordPress – Theme(s) – Plugin(s). Ideally you are making note of the before and after versions.

After completed, perform a visual inspection of your site and test critical functionality that may have been affected – contact forms, subscription buttons, purchasing etc.
