Where this data comes from
- Version, last update, installs: wordpress.org/plugins/metform (Plugins API), fetched 2026-11-01.
- Vulnerabilities: NIST National Vulnerability Database (NVD), checked 2026-11-01. This product uses data from the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.
- Each record links to its CVE page and to the original advisory (Wordfence, Patchstack or WPScan) where there is one. We only list a CVE here when its references or its advisory name this exact plugin, so a few real issues may be missing; none should be about a different plugin. Spot an error? Email Daniel.
