Not by age alone. Mature code hides old bugs that AI now finds fast. Judge libraries on maintainers, fuzzing, memory safety and fix speed, then patch.
Partly. Legacy products skip CRA design rules unless substantially modified after 11 Dec 2027, but exploited flaw reporting has applied since 11 Sept 2026.
Only a few percent of CVEs ever show exploitation: about 0.5% are in CISA KEV and 2 to 3% show activity in a month. Here is how to prioritise with that.
Sometimes. Go offline when an exposed system is exploitable, the data matters and no mitigation holds. Otherwise isolate one path and patch fast.
Fixes take weeks because maintainers must reproduce, fix, backport and coordinate releases. The second gap, from fix to your production, is yours.
Yes, if you run a supported PHP line, patch within days and treat Composer packages and plugins as your main risk. Here is how to check your estate.
