Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The wp-all-import plugin before 3.2.5 for WordPress has reflected XSS.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the wp-all-import WordPress plugin before version 3.2.5. The vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript or HTML code through unsanitized user input that gets reflected back in the application's HTTP response without proper output encoding.

MitigationUpdate the wp-all-import plugin to version 3.2.5 or later, which contains the fix for this reflected XSS vulnerability. As a temporary measure, disable the plugin until an update can be applied.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify the installed wp-all-import plugin version
    Navigate to WordPress Admin > Plugins > Installed Plugins, locate 'WP All Import', and check the version number displayed beneath the plugin name. Alternatively, inspect the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/wp-all-import/readme.txt or the main plugin PHP file to find the Version field.
    Affected if The displayed version number is lower than 3.2.5 (for example, 3.2.4, 3.2.0, or any version below 3.2.5).
  2. Confirm the plugin is active and accessible
    Check if the wp-all-import plugin is listed as 'Active' in the WordPress Plugins admin page. Also verify that any public-facing pages or admin pages that use the plugin are accessible.
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is below 3.2.5, making the vulnerable code load and execute.
  3. Identify plugin endpoints handling user input
    Inspect the plugin's PHP files in /wp-content/plugins/wp-all-import/ for functions that process request parameters (such as $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST) and directly output them into HTML without encoding. Search for patterns like 'echo $_REQUEST' or 'echo $_GET' within the plugin directory.
    Affected if The plugin code contains unsanitized user input reflection logic and the version is below 3.2.5, indicating the vulnerability is present.

You are affected if the wp-all-import plugin version installed in your WordPress environment is below 3.2.5 and the plugin is active.
