Is jQuery Archives Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100jQuery Archives has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The 'jquery-archives' v1.0.0 plugin presents a superficially good security posture due to the absence of any recorded vulnerabilities or critical findings in static analysis and taint checks. The plugin also demonstrates good practices by utilizing prepared statements for all its SQL queries and has no file operations or external HTTP requests. However, a significant concern arises from the complete lack of output escaping. With 3 total outputs and 0% properly escaped, this indicates a strong possibility of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. Furthermore, the absence of nonce and capability checks across its entire attack surface, though currently limited to zero entry points, is a critical oversight that would immediately become a high risk if any entry points were introduced in future updates. The plugin's vulnerability history is clean, but this is not a guarantee of future security, especially given the identified code-level weaknesses.
Key Concerns
- All outputs are unescaped
- No nonce checks on any entry points
- No capability checks on any entry points
