Coding Style Compatibility introduced by
PSR1 recommends that each class must be in a namespace of at least one level to avoid collisions.

You can fix this by adding a namespace to your class:

namespace YourVendor;

class YourClass { }

When choosing a vendor namespace, try to pick something that is not too generic to avoid conflicts with other libraries.

Best Practice introduced by
It is generally recommended to explicitly declare the visibility for methods.

Adding explicit visibility (private, protected, or public) is generally recommend to communicate to other developers how, and from where this method is intended to be used.

Bug Best Practice introduced by
The return type of return $ret; (array<string,string>) is incompatible with the return type of the parent method SecurePlugin::get_secure_menu_entries of type boolean.

If you return a value from a function or method, it should be a sub-type of the type that is given by the parent type f.e. an interface, or abstract method. This is more formally defined by the Lizkov substitution principle, and guarantees that classes that depend on the parent type can use any instance of a child type interchangably. This principle also belongs to the SOLID principles for object oriented design.

Let’s take a look at an example:

class Author {
    private $name;

    public function __construct($name) {
        $this->name = $name;
    }

    public function getName() {
        return $this->name;
    }
}

abstract class Post {
    public function getAuthor() {
        return 'Johannes';
    }
}

class BlogPost extends Post {
    public function getAuthor() {
        return new Author('Johannes');
    }
}

class ForumPost extends Post { /* ... */ }

function my_function(Post $post) {
    echo strtoupper($post->getAuthor());
}

Our function my_function expects a Post object, and outputs the author of the post. The base class Post returns a simple string and outputting a simple string will work just fine. However, the child class BlogPost which is a sub-type of Post instead decided to return an object, and is therefore violating the SOLID principles. If a BlogPost were passed to my_function, PHP would not complain, but ultimately fail when executing the strtoupper call in its body.

Best Practice introduced by
It is not recommended to use PHP's closing tag ?> in files other than templates.

Using a closing tag in PHP files that only contain PHP code is not recommended as you might accidentally add whitespace after the closing tag which would then be output by PHP. This can cause severe problems, for example headers cannot be sent anymore.

A simple precaution is to leave off the closing tag as it is not required, and it also has no negative effects whatsoever.
