Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: The use of deprecated privilege levels (such as 'level_10') for administrative pages allows unauthorized access. Standardizing on explicit, modern roles like 'administrator' is required to prevent authorization bypasses on administrative settings.
Reflected XSS: Diagnostic screens and ping tests that output results directly to the user are susceptible to Reflected XSS. Implementing secure HTML output encoding (such as wp_kses) is necessary to mitigate malicious payload injection via diagnostic responses.
