Is Bento Grid Gallery Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Bento Grid Gallery has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
Based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history, the bento-grid-gallery plugin v1.0.1 exhibits a strong security posture. The absence of any identified vulnerabilities, CVEs, or critical taint flows is highly encouraging. Furthermore, the code demonstrates good practices such as 100% prepared statement usage for SQL queries and a very high percentage of properly escaped output, minimizing the risk of common web vulnerabilities like SQL injection and cross-site scripting. The attack surface is also commendably small and appears to be well-protected, with zero identified entry points lacking authentication checks.
While the plugin appears secure at this version, the complete lack of nonces, capability checks, and the absence of any identified flows in the taint analysis are notable. Although the attack surface is currently zero, a future increase in entry points without these fundamental security checks could introduce vulnerabilities. The lack of documented vulnerability history, while positive, could also be interpreted as limited testing or exposure. Overall, the plugin is in a very good security state for this version, but continued vigilance and adherence to best practices as the plugin evolves are important.
