Is DoFollow State Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100DoFollow State has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The dofollow-state v2.45 plugin exhibits a very strong security posture based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history. The complete absence of identified entry points such as AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, and cron events significantly limits the plugin's attack surface. Furthermore, the code analysis reveals excellent practices, with no dangerous functions, all SQL queries utilizing prepared statements, and all outputs being properly escaped. The lack of file operations, external HTTP requests, and the noted absence of nonce and capability checks, while potentially indicating a very simple plugin, also means there are no obvious areas for injection or unauthorized actions within these vectors.
The vulnerability history is equally impressive, with zero recorded CVEs of any severity. This suggests a well-maintained codebase that has historically avoided known security flaws. The absence of any common vulnerability types further reinforces this positive assessment. The plugin's strengths lie in its minimal attack surface and the developer's apparent adherence to secure coding principles regarding data handling and output sanitization. The primary 'weakness,' if it can be called that, is the sheer lack of any identified complexity or features that would typically expose security vulnerabilities. This simplicity contributes to its high security score.
