Is Blocks for Gutenberg Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Blocks for Gutenberg has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The 'orchestrated-blocks' plugin version 1.0.9 exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of dangerous functions, raw SQL queries, unescaped output, file operations, external HTTP requests, and vulnerability history is highly commendable. The plugin demonstrates a commitment to secure coding practices. The limited attack surface, with only one REST API route and no unprotected entry points, further bolsters its security. The lack of taint analysis findings reinforces the impression of well-sanitized code. However, the absence of explicit nonce and capability checks, while not immediately indicative of a vulnerability given the other factors, represents a missed opportunity to implement defense-in-depth. If the single REST API route handles sensitive operations or user-specific data, the lack of these checks could become a concern in future updates or if the plugin's functionality expands. Overall, this version appears very secure, but the absence of certain common security checks warrants slight caution.
Key Concerns
- No nonce checks found
