Inflation bugs definitely are possible. However, there's a lot of work that goes into making sure that does not occur. And at least as of now, we don't seem to have had one because if we did, we would see much higher Monero inflation because somebody with an inflation rate bug is going to print themselves more Monero. And so far, in the 10 years Monero has existed, we've not seen evidence of such.
