In the last few years, Wordpress has become the largest Content Management System, powering 33% of the entire web. WordPress popularity is based on it’s ease of use, flexibility and scalability. On the other hand, the platform plugins and themes are vulnerable to one of the easiest forms of attack, an Sql Injection (SQLi).


In an SQLi, attackers exploit vulnerabilities in web applications, stealing, deleting or modifying data. Several large companies have become victims of these attacks, including Equifax, Epic Games, LinkedIn and Sony Pictures, to name a few.
