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.
