Security Policy

Supported Versions

We only provide security fixes for the latest release of each plugin. We do not backport fixes to older versions.

If you're running an outdated version, please update first — your issue may already be resolved.

Reporting a Vulnerability

Do not open a public issue for security vulnerabilities.

Instead, please report them privately:

  1. GitHub Security Advisories (preferred): Go to the affected plugin's repository > Security tab > "Report a vulnerability"
  2. Email: Reach out through openwpclub.com with "Security" in the subject

What to include

  • Which plugin and version is affected
  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Potential impact
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)

What to expect

  • We'll acknowledge your report within 48 hours
  • We'll provide an initial assessment within 1 week
  • We aim to release a fix within 2 weeks for confirmed vulnerabilities
  • We'll credit you in the release notes (unless you prefer to remain anonymous)

Scope

This policy covers all public repositories under the Open-WP-Club organization.

General Security Practices

Our plugins follow WordPress security best practices:

  • All user input is sanitized (sanitize_text_field, absint, etc.)
  • All output is escaped (esc_html, esc_attr, wp_kses, etc.)
  • All form submissions use nonces
  • Database queries use $wpdb->prepare()
  • File operations use the WordPress Filesystem API
  • Capabilities are checked before privileged actions

There aren’t any published security advisories
