Is PS Sub-pages Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100PS Sub-pages has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "pssubpages" v1.0.0 plugin exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The complete absence of identified entry points, dangerous functions, file operations, and external HTTP requests significantly minimizes the potential attack surface. Furthermore, all SQL queries utilize prepared statements, and there are no recorded vulnerabilities or CVEs, indicating a history of secure development and maintenance. The taint analysis also reveals no critical or high-severity unsanitized flows.
However, a notable concern is the low percentage (21%) of properly escaped output. This suggests that while the plugin avoids common pitfalls like SQL injection or arbitrary file writes, there's a risk of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities if user-supplied data is not adequately sanitized before being displayed. The lack of any capability checks or nonce checks on the identified (albeit zero) entry points is also a theoretical weakness, though its practical impact is mitigated by the absence of those entry points in this version.
