Is Reviewer Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Reviewer has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The wpreviewer plugin, version 1.0.5, exhibits a mixed security posture. On the positive side, it has no known historical vulnerabilities, which suggests a generally stable development history. The plugin also performs a reasonable amount of output escaping, indicating some attention to preventing cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. However, significant concerns are raised by the static analysis. The presence of an unprotected AJAX handler creates a direct entry point for attackers without any authentication or authorization checks, which is a critical weakness. Furthermore, the complete lack of prepared statements for SQL queries is a major risk, as it exposes the plugin to SQL injection vulnerabilities, especially when combined with unsanitized data. The taint analysis also highlights two high-severity flows with unsanitized paths, corroborating the SQL injection concerns.
Key Concerns
- Unprotected AJAX handler
- SQL queries without prepared statements
- High severity taint flows (2)
