Web App Plugin/Extension Update: Securing the Weakest Links

Overview

Even if your CMS or framework is up to date, outdated plugins and extensions often remain the weakest link. Attackers target these add-ons — contact forms, e-commerce modules, galleries, SEO tools — because vulnerabilities in third-party code are widely exploited to inject malware, steal data, or hijack websites.
