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 administrator access existsConfirm that administrator-level accounts exist on the WordPress site, as CVE-2023-24384 requires a logged-in administrator to be tricked into an actionAffected if There are active administrator accounts that could be targeted for CSRF attacks through the plugin's admin interfaces
-
Identify state-changing operations in the pluginExamine the plugin's admin pages and AJAX endpoints for forms that perform actions (such as creating, editing, or deleting organization chart data, or modifying plugin settings) - check if these forms include nonce fields or CSRF tokensAffected if The plugin contains forms or AJAX handlers that process requests without validating a nonce or CSRF token, which would be confirmed through code review or functional testing of the plugin's admin actions

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement WordPress nonce validation on all state-changing operations (forms and AJAX endpoints) and add CSRF tokens to plugin pages; users should update to a patched version once released.
