Redirectify Security & Risk Analysis
wordpress.org/plugins/wp-redirectifyA plugin that redirects posts and pages to specified url.
Is Redirectify Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Redirectify has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The plugin "wp-redirectify" v2.2.1 demonstrates a generally good security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of any AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events significantly limits its attack surface. Furthermore, the code signals indicate responsible development practices, with 100% of SQL queries using prepared statements, the presence of nonce and capability checks, and no dangerous functions or file operations detected. The lack of known CVEs and a clean vulnerability history also suggests a mature and well-maintained codebase.
However, a minor concern arises from the output escaping. With only 50% of the two identified outputs being properly escaped, there's a potential for cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities if user-controlled data is directly outputted without sufficient sanitization. While the current attack surface is zero and taint analysis reveals no critical or high severity flows, this oversight in output escaping is the primary area for improvement.
In conclusion, "wp-redirectify" v2.2.1 appears to be a secure plugin with a strong foundation. The developer has implemented several key security best practices. The only actionable item for improvement is to ensure all outputs are properly escaped to mitigate any potential XSS risks, even in the absence of directly identifiable vulnerabilities in the current analysis.
