Except WordPress is almost completely founded on its plugins, so that's a non-trivial consideration. Specifically, if WordPress cannot provide proper abstractions, sandboxing, and protocols for plugins to be secure by default, the issue could be greatly reduced. As-is, its model both encourages such flaws to be included and provides its non-technical users with no viable way to identify which are likely to be vulnerable plugins.
