Simple fix, always keep your Wordpress up to date, I don't know why people in the CMS world have fallen into the trap of not upgrading. Drupal for example is notoriously hard to upgrade on point releases, Magento isn't much easier. Wordpress is fairly seamless, couple that with Cloudflare and your site is pretty secure from attack. I also don't see how you can be "locked into" Wordpress either, it's actually one of the easiest CMSs to migrate into and out of. It gets flack for being widely used and running on PHP (so does Magento,) but it's widely used for a reason.

So, for an extension like Shipstation, which is how many ecommerce sites manage postage and labeling, I see that they haven't updated their extension since last year: https://woocommerce.com/products/shipstation-integration/ https://woocommerce.com/products/shipstation-integration/. The listed compatibility is with WooCommerce 3.3. Put yourself in the shoes of an ecommerce site operator. When a Wordpress minor release like 4.9 comes out, do I upgrade or not? How do I balance the security patches with the potential of breaking a critical part of my workflow? EDIT: I meant WC 3.3. 4.1.19 was actually the plugin version
