Why hosting_updateWordPressCoreV1 is rated Medium
This tool updates WordPress core software, which is a reversible write/modification operation. While it changes the software version, it doesn't irreversibly delete data. It could cause issues if a bad version is applied, but updates can generally be rolled back. The async nature means it queues a job rather than executing immediately. Severity is medium because a bad update could break a production website.
