Risk Assessment

The seatgeek-tour-dates plugin version 1.1 exhibits a mixed security posture. On one hand, it demonstrates good practices by exclusively using prepared statements for SQL queries and having no known vulnerabilities in its history, suggesting diligent development or past patching. However, significant concerns arise from the static analysis. The presence of the dangerous `create_function` function is a critical red flag, as it can be exploited for code injection. Furthermore, the extremely low percentage of properly escaped output (6%) indicates a high risk of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The lack of nonce checks and capability checks on any entry points, combined with the presence of file operations and external HTTP requests, creates a significant attack surface that is not adequately protected.

Key Concerns

  • Dangerous function create_function found
  • Only 6% of outputs properly escaped
  • No nonce checks on entry points
  • No capability checks on entry points
  • File operations present without auth
  • External HTTP requests without auth
