This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client's site was flagged by Wordfence for having two potentially abandoned and insecure plugins: WPML Sticky Links and WPML CMS Navigation. The client is concerned about the security implications due to these plugins being labeled as abandoned, with no updates shown in 5 years.
Solution:
We reassured the client that both WPML Sticky Links and WPML CMS Navigation are still maintained for security and functionality despite not having recent updates. If these plugins are not actively used on the site, they can be safely deactivated. For more detailed information on these plugins, you can visit the following links:
