The Wp Plugin Cve Check module sits in this category alongside 5 related modules.

How GateTest covers wp plugin cve check

  • Runs against a live URL. The live-URL scanners, not the repository tiers: the website scan ($29 full report) and the WordPress health check ($19). It probes a running site, so it needs a URL rather than a repo. No additional configuration.
  • Free CLI. npm i -g @gatetest/cli && gatetest --crawl https://your-site.example --module wpPluginCveCheck against a site you own. No paywall on the scanning itself.
  • AI auto-fix PR. Live-URL findings come with plain-English fix instructions. Auto-fix pull requests are for repository findings on the Scan + Fix and Forensic tiers.
  • Honest confidence rating. Findings come with high / medium / low confidence so noisy patterns don't block the gate. The confidence-calibrator trainer reads customer suppressions and tightens rules over time.
