Is Hebrew Dates Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 99/100Hebrew Dates has a strong security track record. Known vulnerabilities have been patched promptly.
The Hebrewdates plugin v2.3.1 demonstrates strong adherence to secure coding practices, particularly regarding SQL injection prevention and output escaping. The static analysis reveals no direct entry points like AJAX handlers, REST API routes, or shortcodes that are exposed without authentication, and importantly, no dangerous functions, file operations, or external HTTP requests were identified. The complete absence of unsanitized paths in the taint analysis further reinforces a positive security posture. However, the plugin's vulnerability history, specifically a medium-severity Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability reported in late 2024, indicates a potential weakness. Although this vulnerability is now patched, it highlights a historical area of concern and suggests that the plugin's input validation or state-changing operations might require more robust protection, even if not immediately apparent in the current static analysis.
Key Concerns
- Medium severity CSRF vulnerability historically present
- Only 1 nonce check for a plugin of this size
