Is Debug Logger Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Debug Logger has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The plugin 'debug-logger' v0.3.0 exhibits an exceptionally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history. The absence of any identified AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events signifies a remarkably small and potentially well-secured attack surface. Furthermore, the code analysis reveals excellent security practices with no dangerous functions, all SQL queries utilizing prepared statements, and all output being properly escaped. The lack of file operations, external HTTP requests, and the absence of any taint flows with unsanitized paths further bolster this assessment. The vulnerability history is equally pristine, with zero recorded CVEs of any severity. This indicates a consistent and long-standing commitment to security by the plugin's developers. While the lack of nonce and capability checks is noted, given the zero attack surface and zero vulnerabilities, this appears to be a consequence of the plugin's minimal functionality rather than a direct oversight. Overall, this plugin presents a very low security risk.
