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. Check installed Liman CMS version
    Access the Liman web interface and navigate to the admin panel or settings page to view the system version information. Alternatively, check the application source files for version metadata (e.g., version file, composer.json, or about page).
    Affected if The installed version is 1.7.0 or any version from 1.7.0 up to but not including 1.8.3-462
  2. Verify CronMail module is enabled
    Check if the CronMail functionality is accessible in the Liman CMS dashboard or configuration. Look for mail-related scheduled task or cron job features within the system administration interface.
    Affected if The CronMail module is present and enabled, and the version is in the affected range
  3. Verify Jobs module is accessible
    Navigate to the Jobs section in the Liman CMS admin panel to confirm the module is available. Check for any job scheduling or task execution features.
    Affected if The Jobs module is accessible and the version is in the affected range
  4. Check HTTP/Controllers endpoint exposure
    Inspect the application's web routes and controller files to confirm the HTTP/Controllers are exposed. Look for any web-accessible endpoints in the Liman installation directory.
    Affected if HTTP/Controllers endpoints are exposed via web and the version is in the affected range

A user is affected if the installed Liman CMS version is between 1.7.0 and 1.8.3-462 (exclusive) and any of the CronMail, Jobs, or HTTP/Controllers modules are enabled and accessible.
