2025 Mid-Year Vulnerability Report

Oliver Side @ patchstack.com • 16 hours ago

Patchstack released a mid-year vulnerability report. There is some self-congratulation of their success as Patchstack now reports far more CVE’s than others in the WordPress space, but also now they apparently file more security issues than Microsoft. An interesting insight is that more than half of the vulnerabilities reported so far this year can be exploited without needing to hack credentials or have site access.

Kadence Blocks 4 Preview

The most recent Kadence Live was a good session. If you are new to Kadence Pro theme and blocks then watch the first half as there is an overview of some of the things you can do with Kadence elements. The link here is for the second half where Ben talks about FSE and what’s coming in Kadence Blocks 4. There is some frank talk about FSE and some of why it is in the shape it is. The main event though is about global styles and how CSS is being handled in basically a two level process – advanced CSS options (variables) in the Style Book reflected in easy to use controls in the editor. Some nice stuff in the UI also.
