State of WordPress Security In 2024
This year, we’ve partnered with Sucuri. With both of our data combined, we can cover the entire timeline of security incidents from the vulnerability being found to the point where malware infection gets detected on a vulnerable website. 2023 was another record year of new vulnerabilities being discovered and fixed in the WordPress ecosystem. In 2023, we added 5,948 new vulnerabilities to the Patchstack vulnerability database. That’s 24% more than in 2022.
