Is WP Butler Safe to Use in 2026?
Generally Safe
Score 85/100WP Butler has no known CVEs and is actively maintained. It's a solid choice for most WordPress installations.
The "wp-butler" plugin version 2.0.2 presents a generally positive security posture, adhering to several good practices. The static analysis indicates a minimal attack surface, with only one AJAX handler identified, and importantly, this handler appears to have authentication checks in place. The absence of REST API routes, shortcodes, and cron events further limits potential entry points. The code also demonstrates strong SQL query hygiene, with 100% of queries using prepared statements, and a robust implementation of nonce and capability checks. The vulnerability history is clean, with no recorded CVEs, which suggests a history of secure development or diligent patching by the maintainers.
