Is Cookie Dunker Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Cookie Dunker has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
Based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history, the 'cookie-dunker' plugin v1.7 exhibits an exceptionally strong security posture. The complete absence of identified entry points across AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, and cron events is a significant strength, indicating that the plugin's functionality is not directly exposed to external manipulation without explicit user interaction or scheduled tasks. Furthermore, the code signals are overwhelmingly positive, with no dangerous functions, all SQL queries using prepared statements, and all identified outputs being properly escaped. The lack of file operations, external HTTP requests, and indications of security checks like nonce or capability checks on potential entry points (which are absent anyway) further reinforces this secure design. The plugin also has a clean vulnerability history, with no recorded CVEs of any severity, suggesting consistent security development practices. While the lack of identified flows in the taint analysis might be due to the limited attack surface or the analysis tool's capabilities, the overall picture is one of a highly secure plugin that adheres to best security practices. The primary concern, though minor, stems from the absence of any identified capability checks or nonce checks. While this is mitigated by the absence of entry points, it means that if any entry points were to be inadvertently introduced in future updates, they might lack these fundamental security measures.
Key Concerns
- No capability checks on entry points
- No nonce checks on entry points
