Core Framework Security & Risk Analysis
wordpress.org/plugins/core-frameworkSay hello to Core Framework - a FREE modular CSS framework platform.
Is Core Framework Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Core Framework has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The core-framework v1.9.3 plugin exhibits a generally strong security posture based on the static analysis. The absence of identified dangerous functions, the exclusive use of prepared statements for SQL queries, and a high percentage of properly escaped output are all positive indicators. Furthermore, the plugin has no recorded vulnerabilities, including CVEs, suggesting a history of stable and secure development. The limited attack surface, with no exposed AJAX handlers, REST API routes, shortcodes, or cron events without authentication checks, significantly reduces the potential for external exploitation.
Key Concerns
- Zero nonce checks
- Zero capability checks
- Output escaping only 85% proper
