Redis Object Cache Security & Risk Analysis
wordpress.org/plugins/redis-object-cacheA persistent object cache powered by Redis.
Is Redis Object Cache Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Redis Object Cache has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "redis-object-cache" v1.0 plugin exhibits a generally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history. The absence of known CVEs and a clean vulnerability history are positive indicators. The plugin's code analysis reveals no dangerous functions, all SQL queries use prepared statements, and there are no external HTTP requests, which are excellent security practices. However, there are areas for concern. The low percentage of properly escaped output (20%) suggests a potential risk of cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities if user-controlled data is being outputted without adequate sanitization. Furthermore, the complete lack of nonce checks and capability checks across its entry points, while the attack surface is currently zero, could become a significant risk if new entry points are introduced or if existing code paths are modified without security in mind. The file operations, though not inherently risky, warrant closer inspection to ensure no sensitive files are being manipulated insecurely.
Key Concerns
- Low output escaping percentage
- No nonce checks on entry points
- No capability checks on entry points
