WordPress Vulnerability Report – September 6, 2023

Written by on

Last Updated on September 6, 2023

Since last week, 95 total vulnerabilities emerged in public disclosure. They may affect over two million WordPress sites. There are 32 plugin vulnerabilities with security patches, so run those updates!

Additionally, there are 60 plugin vulnerabilities and three theme vulnerabilities with no patch available yet. If you use an unpatched plugin or theme, check their vendors’ intentions and progress on a security release. Suppose no patch is forthcoming or the vulnerable software has been marked “closed” and dropped from the official WordPress theme and plugin repositories. In that case, you should consider deactivation and removal in favor of alternative solutions.

WordPress Core Vulnerabilities — Patched

  • No new WordPress core vulnerabilities were disclosed this week.

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

These reports are published every Wednesday and include all active vulnerabilities tracked by Patchstack as of Monday since the previous report. This leaves a 48-hour window for the newest emerging vulnerabilities to be patched before full public disclosure. iThemes Security Pro users have access to vulnerability alerts emerging within this window.

If a security update exists, install it immediately. If a vulnerability remains unpatched in a theme you are actively using, you must find an alternative theme. Deactivate and delete persistently unpatched themes and those marked “Closed” in the WordPress.org theme repository. If you have a vulnerable theme installed that you are not actively using, delete it.
