Is MD Block Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100MD Block has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The plugin 'md-block' v0.1.1 exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of any identified dangerous functions, raw SQL queries, unescaped output, file operations, external HTTP requests, or taint flows suggests that the plugin developers have followed good coding practices concerning security. Furthermore, the lack of any recorded vulnerabilities in its history, including critical or high-severity issues, further reinforces this positive assessment. This indicates a well-maintained and secure plugin. However, the analysis also reveals a complete absence of capability checks and nonce checks, and a zero-entry point attack surface. While the current version seems secure, this lack of basic security mechanisms means that if any entry points were introduced or modified in future versions without appropriate checks, vulnerabilities could easily be introduced. Therefore, while the current state is excellent, ongoing vigilance and the implementation of standard security checks in any future development would be prudent.
