Yeah, I wish I could recommend WordPress to people because it's really nice at what it does, but the security flaws are too serious.The fact that it takes months for them to fix serious vulns reported to them only makes it worse.
Seriously, there are youtube tutorials about 'How to Hack Wordpress.' It can't get much worse than that:

- WhiteSource1 10y agoHow about putting a tool like Incapsula on top (free option offers 2 factor authentication) which makes hacking just a bit harder.
