Is Tilted Tag Cloud Widget Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100Tilted Tag Cloud Widget has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The 'tilted-tag-cloud-widget' plugin, version 1.3.19, exhibits a mixed security posture. On the positive side, it has no known CVEs, a clean vulnerability history, and its SQL queries are properly handled with prepared statements. Furthermore, the static analysis indicates a very small attack surface with no identified entry points lacking authentication, which is excellent. However, the code analysis reveals significant concerns regarding output escaping, with only 13% of outputs being properly escaped, indicating a high risk of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The presence of the `create_function` dangerous function is also a red flag, as it can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary code if not handled with extreme care and proper input sanitization, though no specific exploitable flows were identified in the taint analysis.
Key Concerns
- Low output escaping percentage
- Use of dangerous function 'create_function'
