Contact Form by tech-c.net Security & Risk Analysis

The plugin "contact-form-by-tech-c-net" version 2.0.1 presents a mixed security posture. On the positive side, it boasts no known vulnerabilities in its history and utilizes prepared statements for all SQL queries, indicating good database interaction practices. The attack surface appears minimal with no unprotected entry points identified in the static analysis. However, significant concerns arise from the code analysis. A low percentage of output escaping (40%) suggests a high likelihood of cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities, as untrusted data might be directly rendered to the user's browser. Furthermore, the taint analysis reveals two flows with unsanitized paths, which, while not classified as critical or high severity in this report, still represent potential risks for data manipulation or injection if exploited. The absence of nonce checks and capability checks on potential entry points is also a notable weakness that could be leveraged by attackers to perform unauthorized actions.
