If the author is here could I make a gentle suggestion to change “infected with” to something like “potentially vulnerable to”.
“Infected” means something very specific and I think its usage in this case comes off as a bit clickbaity and detracts from the credibility of the article.
The article referenced as the source of that statistic uses more accurate wording (though doesn’t cite its own sources):
> According to various research and studies, up to 50% of websites are vulnerable to DOM Based XSS vulnerabilities.
Also, “Almost 50%” != “up to 50%”
