Won’t it cause a security vulnerability?

  • Wouldn’t logut buttons used by plugins or themes cause a security vulnerability?

    Some plugins or themes use the wp_logout_url created by WordPress in the logout button definition. However, this url also gives the link to the admin login page on the other side. In my opinion, this could cause a security vulnerability.
    Is there an alternative solution for logout?
    For example: Image Url

    No. The login page for WP sites is well known. If you’re really concerned that a decent password is not enough, use a 2FA plugin to doubly secure your logins.
