WP Keywords Report Security & Risk Analysis

The 'wp-keywords-report' plugin v1.0 exhibits a generally positive security posture based on the provided static analysis, with no identified dangerous functions, file operations, or external HTTP requests. Notably, all SQL queries utilize prepared statements, which is an excellent practice for preventing SQL injection vulnerabilities. The absence of any recorded vulnerabilities in its history further suggests a commitment to security or simply a lack of past exploitable issues.

However, there are significant concerns regarding output escaping. With three total outputs and 0% properly escaped, this indicates a high likelihood of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. Any data displayed to users that originates from user input or external sources and is not properly escaped can be exploited by attackers to inject malicious scripts. Additionally, the complete lack of nonce checks and capability checks across all entry points (even though there are none identified) is a red flag. If entry points were to be discovered or added in future versions, the absence of these fundamental security controls would leave them unprotected.

In conclusion, while the plugin has strengths in its handling of SQL and its clean vulnerability history, the critical weakness in output escaping presents a substantial risk. The lack of authentication and authorization checks on potential future entry points is also a concern that needs to be addressed. The current score reflects these critical issues despite the absence of known CVEs.
