Is Add Plain-Text Email Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 92/100Add Plain-Text Email has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "add-plain-text-email" plugin, version 1.2.1, exhibits an exceptionally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of any identified entry points, including AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events, significantly limits the plugin's attack surface. Furthermore, the code signals indicate a clean codebase with no dangerous functions, all SQL queries using prepared statements, and proper output escaping. The lack of file operations, external HTTP requests, nonce checks, and capability checks, while potentially indicating a very simple plugin, also means there are no obvious avenues for common web vulnerabilities within these areas. The vulnerability history is entirely clear, with no recorded CVEs, suggesting a history of secure development or effective patching. This plugin appears to be well-developed from a security perspective. However, the complete lack of any detected flows in taint analysis and the absence of any capability or nonce checks could, in scenarios with more complex functionality, indicate that the analysis might not have found areas where such checks would be relevant. Overall, this plugin presents a very low security risk.
