Thanks for being here Ryan, 

I don't understand. Dr. Dave's post _doesn't_ allude to plugins, it says it's a WP threat in general. So it's not? Like, if I have no plugins, I'm safe? The WP-Core isn't affected? 

Then, pardon my asking, what's the veil of secrecy for if it's a plugin vulnerability?

Thanks Ryan!
