Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about REST API Shield & XML-RPC Blocker
Some REST API endpoints publish sensitive information that can be exploited by attackers, such as user display names and media details. Restricting anonymous access prevents the risk of this information leaking externally.
There is a possibility it could cause issues. Specifically, if a theme or plugin uses the REST API to load dynamic content for logged-out visitors (e.g., contact forms, dynamic widgets), that functionality might be blocked. In such cases, please add the relevant API route to the Whitelist (Allowed Routes).
In most cases, we strongly recommend disabling it. XML-RPC was primarily used for remote publishing (e.g., older mobile apps), but the REST API is now the standard. Since xmlrpc.php is a prime target for brute-force attacks, you should disable it if you do not require remote publishing.
