Patchstack Weekly - Ending On a High Note

This is the final episode of the Patchstack Weekly podcast. All things come to an end - so it's only fitting to dedicate the last episode to software end-of-life, and how developers and website owners should handle sunsetting their projects. We also want to thank our host, Robert, for sharing lessons on WordPress security (and beyond) over these past 68 episodes!

Patchstack Weekly - Understanding WordPress Security Bug Severity

When you see a security fix available for your website, you should of course update the affected component. But should you drop everything and apply the update immediately? Or can you at least finish your coffee first? Or is it OK to deal with it when you get a break? That depends on the bug. Also in this episode, we'll cover the recent critical WooCommerce security bug which was, luckily, fixed with a rare forced update by the WordPress team.

Patchstack Weekly - State of WordPress Security 2022 Report

We've just released our annual State of WordPress Security report, chock full of security stats and trends from the WordPress ecosystem. Last year we saw 328% more reported security bugs added to our vulnerability database compared to 2021. This is actually a positive sign of the ecosystem becoming more secure, as more bugs are being caught (and patched). On the downside, the trend of critical vulnerabilities being left unpatched persists. Today's episode is a sort of a tl;dr, as we dive into some of the bigger findings from the whitepaper and explain what they mean for the community.
