Is Number Counter Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 92/100Number Counter has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The static analysis of the 'number-counter' plugin v1.1.6 indicates a strong security posture with no identified dangerous functions, raw SQL queries, unescaped outputs, file operations, or external HTTP requests. The plugin also demonstrates good practices by using prepared statements for all SQL queries and properly escaping all outputs. The presence of a capability check suggests an awareness of access control, although the limited entry points mean its effectiveness is hard to gauge without further context.
While the static analysis did not reveal any critical or high-severity issues, the complete absence of entry points (AJAX, REST API, shortcodes, cron) is unusual and could indicate either a very minimal plugin or potential blind spots in the analysis. The taint analysis also reported zero flows, which is positive but might be a consequence of the lack of input processing within the analyzed code.
Furthermore, the plugin has no recorded vulnerability history, with zero known CVEs and no past security incidents. This, combined with the clean static analysis, suggests a well-maintained and secure plugin. However, the lack of any documented entry points or user-facing functionality from the static analysis makes a definitive assessment challenging. The plugin appears secure based on the provided data, but its limited apparent functionality is noteworthy.
