Web Publishing for All! Introducing Community Translator Tools | Blogs | WordPress | Blogging

Web Publishing for All! Introducing Community Translator Tools | Blogs | WordPress | Blogging | WordPress and Annotum for Education, Science,Journal Publishing | Scoop.it
We're excited to announce new tools that help make WordPress even more accessible to people around the globe.


Roughly half of the content and traffic on the internet is in English1, yet English is the mother tongue of only about a quarter of internet users2, and less than 5% of the world’s population.3 We believe that WordPress.com should be for everyone, not just English speakers — it’s why we already serve WordPress in 131 languages — but we want to make it even more accessible.4

To keep so many languages up to date we need to make it radically easier for non-English speaking communities to help with translation. We’re proud to announce our latest step in that direction: the Community Translator.

WordPress plugin used by millions sports critical site-hijacking flaw | CyberSecurity | Blogging

WordPress plugin used by millions sports critical site-hijacking flaw | CyberSecurity | Blogging | WordPress and Annotum for Education, Science,Journal Publishing | Scoop.it

Another popular Yoast Wordpress plugin has been found sporting a critical vulnerability that can be exploited by attackers to take over control of the site.

A week ago it was the WordPress SEO plugin, which is actively used on more than a million of WP sites. This time it's the company's Google Analytics plugin, which has apparently been downloaded around 7 million times.

According to the researcher who discovered the issue, Jouko Pynnönen of Finland-based Klikki Oy, the vulnerability "allows an unauthenticated attacker to store arbitrary HTML, including JavaScript, in the WordPress administrator’s Dashboard on the target system. The JavaScript will be triggered when an administrator views the plug-in’s settings panel. No further user interaction is required."

Over 1 million WordPress websites at risk from SQL injection | CyberSecurity

Over 1 million WordPress websites at risk from SQL injection | CyberSecurity | WordPress and Annotum for Education, Science,Journal Publishing | Scoop.it
A critical security flaw in a plugin called WP-Slimstat is to blame.


Over one million websites running the WordPress content management system are potentially at risk of being hijacked due to a critical vulnerability exposed in the WP-Slimstat plugin.

On Tuesday, a security advisory posted by researcher Marc-Alexandre Montpas from security firm Sucuri said the "very high risk" vulnerability found in versions of WP-Slimstat 3.9.5 and lower could lead to cyberattackers being able to break the plugin's "secret" key, perform an SQL injection and take over a target website.

Thousands of WordPress sites affected by zero-day exploit | CyberSecurity | WordPress and Annotum for Education, Science,Journal Publishing | Scoop.it
Thousands of websites are at risk of being exploited by a previously undisclosed vulnerability in a WordPress plugin, which researchers say could be used to inject malicious code into websites.

The flaw exists in Fancybox, a popular image displaying tool, through which Sucuri researchers say malware or any other script can be added to a vulnerable site.

"We can confirm that this plugin has a serious vulnerability," the researchers wrote. "It's being actively exploited in the wild, leading to many compromised websites," the researchers wrote.
