Is Lock Bad User Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 92/100Lock Bad User has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "lock-bad-user" v1.1.8 plugin exhibits an exceptionally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis and vulnerability history. The absence of any detected entry points, dangerous functions, or direct SQL queries is a significant positive indicator. Furthermore, the flawless adherence to prepared statements for SQL and complete output escaping demonstrates a commitment to secure coding practices. The plugin's vulnerability history is clean, with no known CVEs, which suggests either a history of robust security or a lack of prior in-depth security scrutiny. The complete absence of taint analysis findings reinforces the impression of a well-secured codebase. However, the complete lack of any security checks (nonce or capability checks) across all potential entry points, even though there are zero of them, is a notable oversight. While currently not exploitable due to the absence of exposed entry points, if any were to be introduced in future versions, they would be completely unprotected. This is the only area of concern in an otherwise exemplary security report.
Key Concerns
- Missing capability checks on all entry points
- Missing nonce checks on all entry points
