Is Monthchunks Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Monthchunks has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "monthchunks" v3.1.2 plugin exhibits a generally strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. It has no recorded vulnerabilities, a clean taint analysis, and a very small attack surface with no apparent entry points without authentication or permission checks. The plugin also utilizes prepared statements for its sole SQL query, which is a good practice for preventing SQL injection. However, there are areas for concern. A significant portion (80%) of its output is not properly escaped, which could lead to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities if user-supplied data is displayed without sanitization. Furthermore, the complete absence of nonce checks is a notable weakness, as nonces are crucial for preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, especially if any functionality, even if currently lacking entry points, were to be added in the future. The lack of identified vulnerabilities in its history is positive, but it does not negate the risks presented by the unescaped output and missing nonce checks.
