Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records OWASP User Location Check version 1.1 as active, updated 5y ago and tested up to WordPress 5.7.
Overview
About this plugin
How does it work?
Every time when user attempts to log in to WordPress CMS, OWASP security plugin receives and stores information about the user’s country. io, an external service which provides available information on user’s IP address and does not in any way compromise WordPress security. Once the country of attempted login is identified, the plugin compares current locations with that of the previous successful CMS login within the last 2 hours.
If country is different, the plugin flags it as unauthorized login attempt and sends notification to OWASP manager, with recommendation to change CMS password. Email address for OWASP manager is identified in plugin settings as “Notification email”.
