Is Easy SVG Support Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 96/100Easy SVG Support has a strong security track record. Known vulnerabilities have been patched promptly.
The Easy SVG plugin v4.1 exhibits a mixed security profile. On one hand, the static analysis reveals commendable security practices within the current codebase. There are no detected dangerous functions, all SQL queries use prepared statements, and all output is properly escaped. The plugin also includes nonce and capability checks, indicating an effort to secure its functionalities. However, the presence of three previously disclosed medium-severity vulnerabilities, particularly Cross-Site Scripting, raises a significant concern regarding the plugin's historical security and potential for recurring issues. While these vulnerabilities are reported as patched, the pattern suggests that the plugin may have had past weaknesses that could be reintroduced or that a thorough review of past vulnerabilities is necessary to ensure robust long-term security. The static analysis did not identify any critical or high-severity taint flows, which is positive, but the history of XSS vulnerabilities warrants caution.
