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 confidenceCross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability in the pricing-table-by-supsystic WordPress plugin before version 1.8.2. Attackers can potentially trick authenticated administrators into performing unintended actions (such as modifying plugin settings or price table configurations) by forging requests from malicious pages.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify the plugin is installedCheck if the pricing-table-by-supsystic plugin exists in your WordPress installation by navigating to /wp-content/plugins/ or checking the Plugins page in the WordPress admin dashboard.Affected if The plugin is present in the plugins directory or listed in WordPress admin.
-
Identify the installed versionIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Pricing Table by Supsystic and check the version number displayed, or inspect the main plugin file (typically pricing-table-by-supsystic.php) to find the 'Version' header comment.Affected if The version displayed is below 1.8.2 (e.g., 1.8.1, 1.8.0, 1.7.x, etc.).
-
Confirm the plugin is activeCheck the Plugins page in WordPress admin to verify whether Pricing Table by Supsystic is currently activated. An inactive plugin poses no CSRF risk since no authenticated admin session interacts with it.Affected if The plugin is both installed AND activated.
-
Review plugin settings for unauthorized changesNavigate to the plugin settings page (Pricing Table > Settings or similar) and inspect all configuration options for unexpected modifications, particularly nonce validation settings, admin action endpoints, or any price table configurations that could have been altered via forged requests.Affected if Settings appear modified, contain unexpected values, or include requests to external domains that you did not intentionally configure.
You are affected if the pricing-table-by-supsystic plugin is installed, active, and running a version earlier than 1.8.2.
