You can say basically the same about any popular system. Chrome, Windows, iOS all have regular vulnerabilities. Maybe the difference is that they have very strong forced patching, whereas there are enough WordPress installs that don't get critical patches for far too long.
- sidewndr46 5y agoIn all measures, Windows is a dumpster fire. Usability, security, stability, etc. So what is your argument here? That Wordpress is at least as bad as a popular OS? I don't know enough about iOS to comment.
- kevincox 5y agoMy point is that all popular software is a security nightmare because our industry sucks at security. Anything that is a high value attack target gets pwned. Very little software appears to be actually secure. Maybe OpenSSH is on that short list, but even that has occasional problems. But for it's attack value the known vulnerabilities seem low.
