This week, the total patched and unpatched vulnerabilities may impact well over 9 million WordPress sites. There are 84 plugin vulnerabilities and one theme vulnerability with security patches available, so run those updates if you use these plugins! Additionally, there are 39 plugin vulnerabilities and 3 theme vulnerabilities with no patch available yet. If you use any of these unpatched plugins or themes, check their vendors’ intentions and progress on a security release. If no patch is forthcoming or a vulnerable plugin or theme has been “closed” (dropped from the WordPress.org repository), you should consider deactivating it in favor of alternative solutions.

No new WordPress core vulnerabilities were disclosed this week.

WordPress core is very secure when it’s properly configured and maintained. Vulnerable plugins that have not been updated by site owners are the most common vector for attacks on WordPress websites. Our weekly WordPress Vulnerability Report, powered by Patchstack, covers new WordPress plugin, theme, and core vulnerabilities that have emerged since last week’s report. Our goal is to spread awareness of emerging security threats and help you decide what to do if you are using vulnerable software on your website. For a deeper analysis of recent trends in WordPress vulnerabilities and threat vectors, see our 2022 Annual Vulnerability Report.

WordPress Core News

WordPress 6.1.1 is the current (short-cycle maintenance) release of WordPress core. It is a minor release issued on November 15, 2022. It features 29 bug fixes in Core and 21 bug fixes for the Gutenberg block editor. You can review a summary of the key updates in this release at WordPress.org.

If your WordPress sites have enabled automatic background updates, they should have upgraded to 6.1.1 automatically. You can download WordPress 6.1.1 from WordPress.org, or visit your WordPress Dashboard, click “Updates,” and then click the “Update Now” button which will appear when any core updates are available. For more information, check out the version 6.1.1 HelpHub documentation page.

WordPress 6.2 is the next major WordPress release, and it’s on track for a March 28, 2023 debut. You can learn more about what’s coming in the WordPress 6.2 RC1 release announcement and the WordPress 6.2 Field Guide.
