WordPress, a website creation and hosting site, is vulnerable to a major security flaw that allows hackers to edit websites without the creator’s consent. 

WordPress, a website creation and hosting site, is vulnerable to a security flaw that allows hackers to edit WordPress websites. The flaw was disclosed on April 12 of this year, and WordPress has yet to issue an official statement in response to the reported vulnerability. 

WordPress’ terms of service includes a binding arbitration provision, but not a class action waiver. 

A similar class action is being investigated against GoDaddy for a security breach in its web hosting service, Managed WordPress (no corporate relation to WordPress).
