A community support forum for WP Review Slider Pro - WordPress Plugin
Plugin flagged as malware by security scanners – false positive or genuine issue?
Hi all,
I’m currently using WP Review Slider Pro and one of the plugin files is being flagged as malware by multiple security scanners.
From reviewing the code, it appears the warning may be related to external API calls, legacy PHP functions, and file handling methods rather than any obvious malicious payload. However, this is obviously concerning from a production security standpoint.
Has anyone else experienced this with recent versions of the plugin?
Specifically:
- Are there plans to refactor remote requests to use official APIs only?
- Is there a roadmap to modernise input sanitisation and file handling to meet current WordPress security standards?
- Has this been confirmed as a false positive by the development team?
Any insight from the developers or other users would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks

Prevent svg file uploads (restrict photos to just jpg / png)
How do I prevent users from uploading potentially malicious files (e.g. svg files, which can contain executable scripts) as a photo. I can't find anywhere the settings on which file types are allowed to be uploaded - I'm concerned there may not be any restrictions at all!!! I only want them to be able upload simple image files such as jpg / png as these are definitely safe.
Stars not showing up when logged out of site
I've noticed that the stars on my reviews shown on the website front end are showing up as boxes - like the star icons aren't showing up. When I'm logged into the website, they do show up, but when not logged in, they're showing up as boxes.
I've tried excluding wprev from the NitroPack cache and cleared that and our WPEngine cache as well, but the boxes still show up.
Anyone else had this issue?
