 * I haven’t had the time to go through and see specifically what CodeRisk has flagged,
   but having spent days (way more time than I should have) trying to improve the
   score for EWWW Image Optimizer, I have a pretty good idea what I’ll find.
 * In short, there are a lot of things the CodeRisk scanner will flag that are not
   exploitable, many which have no way to “fix”. Often, the only “fix” is to use
   a WordPress wrapper function that CodeRisk doesn’t recognize–this is not only
   my experience, but that of my competitors/colleagues that have worked to improve
   how their plugins score on CodeRisk.
 * I will still look through the results for Imsanity at some point, but as there
   are no known vulnerabilities in the plugin, I’m not in a huge rush.

 * OK. Just wanted to make you aware.

 * Oh, I’m aware, it just drives me nuts, and I wish it were more actionable/helpful
   🙂
