Is Review Manager Safe to Use in 2026?
Mostly Safe
Score 79/100Review Manager is generally safe to use. 1 past CVE were resolved. Keep it updated.
The review-manager plugin exhibits a concerning security posture primarily due to a significant number of unprotected entry points. With 3 out of 4 identified entry points lacking authorization checks, there's a high risk of unauthorized access and potential manipulation of plugin functionality. While the use of prepared statements for SQL queries is positive, the extremely low percentage of properly escaped output (9%) indicates a substantial risk of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The plugin's vulnerability history, including a currently unpatched medium severity vulnerability and a pattern of missing authorization, reinforces these concerns. Despite the absence of critical taint flows and dangerous functions, the combination of a wide attack surface without proper checks and widespread output escaping deficiencies presents a significant security risk.
Key Concerns
- Unprotected AJAX handlers
- Low output escaping percentage
- Currently unpatched CVE
- Missing nonce checks on AJAX (implied by unprotected AJAX)
- Missing capability checks on AJAX (implied by unprotected AJAX)
