WordPress powers a large share of the web, which makes it the most consistently targeted CMS out there. Most real-world incidents don't come from WordPress core itself - the core team ships security patches fast - they come from the plugin ecosystem. A single outdated plugin with a public CVE is often all it takes, and attackers run automated tools that scan for known-vulnerable plugin versions across millions of sites continuously.

Beyond plugins, the most common misconfigurations are structural rather than code-level: XML-RPC left enabled (a long-standing brute-force amplification vector), debug output accidentally left on after a staging-to-production push (leaking file paths and database details in error pages), and author archive URLs that quietly reveal valid usernames for credential-stuffing attacks.

Because most of these issues live at the configuration and infrastructure layer rather than in your own custom code, a plugin-based security scanner can only see part of the picture. An external scan sees exactly what a visitor - or an attacker - can observe from outside, which is where most of these problems actually surface first.
