Outdated CMS Plugins & Themes (WordPress)
Detects active WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla plugins and checks for known vulnerabilities in publicly exposed asset paths.
Why It Matters
Over 90% of WordPress compromises originate from unpatched third-party plugins rather than WordPress core itself.
How We Check This
We analyze asset URLs (/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name/) and check version queries against known vulnerability catalogs.
How to Fix & Implement
Copy-paste configuration blocks tailored for your web server or edge proxy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I delete deactivated WordPress plugins?
Yes! Inactive plugins still reside on your server and can be invoked directly by attackers if unpatched.
