wordpress.org/plugins/sam-scroll-masterModern, secure, and highly configurable smooth scroll plugin for WordPress.
Is Sam Scroll Master Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 100/100Sam Scroll Master has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "sam-scroll-master" v1.0 plugin exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. The absence of known CVEs and a clean vulnerability history suggests a history of secure development. The code analysis reveals a well-defended attack surface, with all AJAX handlers protected by nonce and capability checks. The plugin also demonstrates good practices in SQL query handling and output escaping, with 100% of SQL queries using prepared statements and 96% of outputs properly escaped. There are no reported dangerous functions, file operations, or external HTTP requests, further reducing the potential for common attack vectors. The plugin's only notable external dependency is the Select2 library, which, if outdated, could pose a minor risk, though this is not explicitly stated in the provided data.
While the plugin's current state appears secure, the static analysis data is limited. The absence of taint analysis flows and the low number of analyzed flows (zero) mean that potential vulnerabilities related to data sanitization and flow control might have been missed. Similarly, the lack of shortcodes and cron events means there are no entry points for these types of vulnerabilities to manifest in this specific version. The overall security is good, with no immediate critical or high-risk issues identified in the code. However, the limited scope of the taint analysis should be noted as a potential blind spot.
