Is TinyMCE Code Button Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100TinyMCE Code Button has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "tinymce-code-button" v0.0.1 plugin exhibits a strong security posture based on the provided static analysis. It demonstrates excellent adherence to secure coding practices, with no dangerous functions identified, all SQL queries utilizing prepared statements, and all output properly escaped. The absence of file operations and external HTTP requests further reduces potential attack vectors. The presence of capability checks, even though zero entry points are detected, suggests an awareness of access control best practices. The plugin's vulnerability history is clean, with no recorded CVEs, indicating a lack of known exploits and a potentially stable codebase. The bundled TinyMCE library is flagged as v0.0.1, which is a concern as it is an extremely old version. While the static analysis and vulnerability history are overwhelmingly positive, the bundled library's outdated version represents a significant, albeit latent, risk that could be exploited if vulnerabilities exist within that specific version of TinyMCE.
