Risk Assessment

The wp-power-ocr-free plugin v1.05 exhibits a generally good security posture based on the provided static analysis. The plugin demonstrates strong adherence to secure coding practices, with 100% of SQL queries using prepared statements and all output being properly escaped. Furthermore, the presence of nonce and capability checks for its single AJAX handler, along with no shortcodes, cron events, or REST API routes, significantly limits the potential attack surface. The absence of known CVEs and historical vulnerabilities further strengthens this positive assessment.

  • Taint flow with unsanitized path
