Is StatsFC Match Centre Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100StatsFC Match Centre has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "statsfc-match-centre" plugin version 2.1.0 exhibits a mixed security posture. On the positive side, it shows excellent practices in avoiding dangerous functions, performing zero file operations, making no external HTTP requests, and all SQL queries are properly prepared. The absence of known CVEs and a clean vulnerability history further bolster confidence in its security. However, several concerns emerge from the static analysis. The plugin has a relatively low number of entry points, but the sole shortcode is not protected by any capability checks or nonce checks. While there are no identified critical or high severity taint flows, there are two flows with unsanitized paths, indicating potential, albeit currently unexploited, risks. The most significant concern is the low percentage of properly escaped output (48%), which suggests a high likelihood of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities, especially given the lack of nonce and capability checks on its primary entry point.
Key Concerns
- Unescaped output (48% proper)
- Unsanitized paths in taint analysis
- Shortcode lacks capability checks
- Shortcode lacks nonce checks
