Is Stormpath Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Stormpath has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
Based on the static analysis and vulnerability history, the "stormpath" plugin v0.1.6 appears to have a strong security posture. The absence of any AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events significantly limits the potential attack surface. Furthermore, the code demonstrates good development practices with 100% of SQL queries using prepared statements and all output being properly escaped. The presence of nonce checks and a complete lack of recorded vulnerabilities further bolsters this positive assessment.
However, a few areas warrant consideration. The static analysis indicates zero capability checks were found. While the attack surface is currently zero, any future additions of entry points without proper capability checks would introduce significant risk. Additionally, the plugin bundles Guzzle v1.1, which, depending on its specific version, could be outdated and potentially contain known vulnerabilities. While no CVEs are currently recorded for this plugin, this absence doesn't guarantee future safety and relies on the developer's ongoing vigilance.
Overall, this plugin exhibits a high level of security for its current version and feature set. The developer has implemented several key security best practices. The primary areas for potential future risk lie in ensuring proper capability checks are implemented for any new entry points, and maintaining awareness of the security status of bundled libraries. Without any detected vulnerabilities or exploitable code patterns, the current risk is assessed as very low.
