Is Mos Speed up Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Mos Speed up has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The mos-speed-up v1.0.2 plugin exhibits a concerning security posture, primarily due to its unprotected AJAX endpoints. While the plugin demonstrates good practices in other areas such as SQL query sanitization and output escaping, the presence of four AJAX handlers without authentication checks represents a significant attack surface. This could allow unauthenticated users to trigger potentially sensitive actions within the plugin, leading to unintended consequences or enabling further exploitation. The taint analysis did not reveal any critical or high-severity vulnerabilities, and there is no known vulnerability history, which is a positive sign. However, the absence of vulnerabilities does not negate the risks posed by the unprotected entry points. The plugin's strengths lie in its secure handling of database queries and output, but these are overshadowed by the critical weakness of exposed AJAX functionality.
Key Concerns
- Unprotected AJAX handlers
- No nonce checks on AJAX handlers
- Flows with unsanitized paths found
