This post is just to reassure you that your site is completely safe and taken care of because you are keeping the site maintained, safe and secure.
On Friday July 17th, a critical vulnerability in WordPress core was disclosed. Unlike typical security issues, this one didn’t rely on outdated plugins or themes, it simply targeted the core WordPress software directly, allowing automated attack scripts to attempt site takeovers without needing a password or vulnerability.
It’s been one of the most serious WordPress security events in nearly a decade.
As soon as the threat was disclosed I deployed firewall protections, applied the necessary WordPress core patches, and ran security checks across your site. Everything went smoothly, there was zero downtime, and your site is 100% secure.
This is exactly why we keep your site on active maintenance. Threats are always popping up, but we’re always working in the background so you never have to worry about them.
You can read more about the event here, if you’re interested in learning more:
And this is the official update release information: https://wordpress.org/news/2026/07/wordpress-7-0-2-release/
No action is needed on your end, but feel free to shout if you have any questions.
