Doctor Web has discovered a malicious Linux program that hacks websites based on a WordPress CMS. It exploits 30 vulnerabilities in a number of plugins and themes for this platform. If sites use outdated versions of such add-ons, lacking crucial fixes, the targeted webpages are injected with malicious JavaScripts. As a result, when users click on any area of an attacked page, they are redirected to other sites.

It's not about wordpress it's all about "outdated" plugins/themes.
I strongly suggest that using "cloudlinux" based server if you need shared hosting.

Also choose a good web host that provides additional security
for example a new host 200 km from my home I am very satisfied and he has set up protection (Tiger Protect) after years of refinement and improvement he is good for the moment.

I've been using Wordpress for 11 years and I have never had a problem.
I recommend to have installed the plugin "Wordfence", that's a must.
