Version 1.4.0

Latest October 23, 2025
Removed
  • Removed unreliable debug mode detection (WP_DEBUG detection requires actual PHP errors to be visible, causing too many false negatives on well-coded sites)

Version 1.3.1

October 23, 2025
Added
  • Detection of exposed database backup files (backup.sql)
  • Detection of test files (test.php) that may expose server configuration
Changed
  • Moved readme.html and license.txt from high to medium severity (informational only, not security risks)
Fixed
  • Fixed sensitive files findings formatter incorrectly grouping ALL medium severity files as "Source Code Exposed"
  • Now properly separates .git files (actual source code risk) from readme.html/license.txt (version information)
  • Git repository files now correctly shown as "Source Code Exposed"
  • Readme/license files now shown as "Version Information Disclosed" with appropriate description
  • Fixed "undefined" appearing in UI for medium severity findings (missing alert-triangle icon)
