Is Keep it Fresh Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Keep it Fresh has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "keep-it-fresh" v1.0 plugin exhibits a generally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis data. The absence of identified AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, and cron events significantly limits the plugin's attack surface. Furthermore, the code signals show no dangerous functions, all SQL queries are properly prepared, and there are no file operations or external HTTP requests, all of which are positive indicators. However, a notable concern is the low percentage of properly escaped output (17%). This indicates a potential for cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities if user-supplied data is directly outputted without adequate sanitization. The plugin also has no recorded vulnerability history, which is a positive sign, suggesting a history of secure development. Overall, while the plugin appears robust in many areas, the unescaped output is a specific area that requires attention to fully mitigate potential risks.
