Is Page as 404 Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Page as 404 has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "page-as-404" plugin v1.0.3 exhibits a generally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of any detected AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events with unauthenticated access, coupled with no identified dangerous functions, raw SQL queries, or critical taint flows, suggests a limited attack surface and robust coding practices. The high percentage of properly escaped output is also a positive indicator. However, the lack of any nonce checks or capability checks for its operations, along with one observed file operation, presents a potential area for concern. The plugin's clean vulnerability history with zero known CVEs further reinforces its current perceived security, indicating a history of responsible development and maintenance. Overall, while the plugin demonstrates good security fundamentals, the absence of specific authorization checks warrants attention.
Key Concerns
- No nonce checks for operations
- No capability checks for operations
- Presence of file operations
- Minor output escaping issues (1/6)
