The Nexcess Managed Wordpress platform configures Wordpress Core updates by default and the vast majority of websites have been updated. Nexcess System Engineers proactively attempted to update affected websites that were not already on the patched version. In some cases this was not possible to do. The Nexcess Managed Wordpress Development team has pushed a must-use plugin that mitigates this vulnerability where the application is not on a patched version. All customers are strongly encouraged to ensure their websites have been updated to the latest version of Wordpress.
