The Chancery Lane Project has released an open-source WordPress plugin called Markdown for Agents that serves simplified Markdown versions of webpages to AI agents, stripping out unnecessary scripts and layout code. This approach significantly reduces data transfer—by about 80% per page—and token usage for AI processing, potentially saving billions of gigabytes and cutting energy consumption equivalent to powering the entire USA for 24 hours annually if widely adopted across WordPress sites.

Someone Bought 30 WordPress Plugins and Planted a Backdoor in All of Them.

, , ,

A newly acquired portfolio of over 30 popular WordPress plugins was found to contain a sophisticated backdoor planted by the buyer eight months before activation, enabling unauthorized access, SEO spam injection, and evasion of traditional domain takedowns by resolving command-and-control domains via Ethereum smart contracts. After discovery, WordPress.org immediately removed all affected plugins, and patched versions with the malicious module removed have been released to mitigate the widespread threat from hundreds of thousands of compromised sites. This incident highlights significant trust and security vulnerabilities in the WordPress plugin marketplace, particularly the lack of oversight around plugin ownership changes.
