Is Monsters Editor for WP Super Edit Safe to Use in 2026?
Mostly Safe
Score 77/100Monsters Editor for WP Super Edit is generally safe to use. 1 past CVE were resolved. Keep it updated.
This plugin exhibits a significant security risk due to multiple alarming indicators from the static analysis. The absence of any authentication or capability checks on all identified entry points is a major concern, leaving the plugin vulnerable to unauthorized access and manipulation. The extensive use of dangerous functions like shell_exec, exec, and unserialize, combined with a very low percentage of properly escaped output and a high number of file operations, suggests a high potential for remote code execution and other severe vulnerabilities.
The taint analysis further exacerbates these concerns, with all analyzed flows showing unsanitized paths and one critical severity flow. This indicates that user-supplied input could be directly influencing sensitive operations, leading to exploits. The plugin's vulnerability history, including a known critical CVE for unrestricted file uploads, reinforces the pattern of severe security weaknesses. While the plugin has no external HTTP requests, its internal code structure presents a substantial risk.
In conclusion, the "monsters-editor-10-for-wp-super-edit" v1.1 plugin has a very poor security posture. The complete lack of input validation and authorization on its entry points, coupled with the presence of dangerous functions and critical taint flows, makes it highly susceptible to exploitation. The historical critical vulnerability also points to recurring security flaws. Despite having no external network exposure, the internal code weaknesses and lack of protective measures pose an immediate and significant threat.
