12 SQL Injections MAR 2021
Managed WordPress Security Report
Be informed about the latest SQL Injections MAR 2021, identified and reported publicly. As these SQL Injections MAR 2021 vulnerabilities have a severe negative impact on any WordPress Security and hosting server security, consider our FREE security AUDIT.
An estimated 210.000+ active WordPress installations are susceptible to this attack type, considering only the publicly available numbers. The estimated number can increase by 20-25% with premium versions as they are private purchases.
Furthermore, the initial estimation can multiply if we consider the already patched versions BUT NOT UPDATED by owners, as the vulnerability remains active within their domain. As these owners start changing their hosting provider (due to constant unexplained issues), they actively migrate these vulnerabilities behind protected areas, possibly exposing other clean WP to different attack types.
It is a 500% increase compared to December 2020. We compare last month versus previous winter holiday season, which has the biggest shopping traffic and attack spike throughout the year.
