WordPress core relies on several values from PHP superglobal variables. In
some cases, these values are accessed directly without first verifying
their existence or applying proper sanitization. This can lead to
potential security concerns and PHP notices.
This pull request addresses a subset of these issues by adding appropriate
existence checks and sanitization to ensure safer and more robust handling
of superglobal data.
