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. Locate the Formcraft Form Builder plugin files
    Navigate to wp-content/plugins/ in your WordPress installation directory and check for a folder named 'formcraft-form-builder' or similar Formcraft-related folders
    Affected if The plugin folder exists in the plugins directory
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Open the main plugin PHP file (usually named formcraft-form-builder.php or similar) and look for the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block at the top of the file
    Affected if The version number displayed is lower than 1.2.2 (for example, 1.2.1, 1.2.0, 1.1.x, etc.)
  3. Verify the plugin is active
    Log into the WordPress admin dashboard, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and check if the Formcraft Form Builder plugin shows as 'Active'
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is below 1.2.2
  4. Confirm WordPress admin authentication requirement
    This CSRF vulnerability requires an authenticated administrator to trigger the malicious request. Check if any administrator sessions exist or if the site has admin users with form-building privileges
    Affected if The site has active administrator accounts with access to the Formcraft plugin functionality and the installed version is below 1.2.2

You are affected if the Formcraft Form Builder plugin is installed and active with a version lower than 1.2.2, as the CSRF flaw allows attackers to exploit authenticated administrator sessions.
