Is Icon Separator Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Icon Separator has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "icon-separator" plugin v1.2.4 exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The complete absence of unprotected entry points, including AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, and cron events, is a significant strength. Furthermore, the code demonstrates excellent security practices with 100% of SQL queries using prepared statements and all outputs being properly escaped. The plugin also correctly implements capability checks and avoids dangerous functions and external HTTP requests. The lack of any recorded vulnerabilities, critical or otherwise, in its history further reinforces its perceived security. However, the presence of a file operation without explicit details on its purpose or associated safeguards could be a minor point of attention, though the taint analysis did not reveal any unsanitized paths related to it. The absence of nonce checks, while not an immediate concern given the lack of vulnerable entry points, is a standard security measure that is typically expected, especially if the plugin's functionality were to expand.
Key Concerns
- File operation detected without clear security context
- Missing nonce checks for potential entry points
