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.
-
Identify if the Ideasoft Rental Module is installedReview your Ideasoft E-commerce Platform installation for the Rental Module component. Check the application modules or plugins directory, or review the platform's module list.Affected if The Rental Module is present in the installation
-
Determine the Rental Module versionLocate the version information for the Rental Module (typically found in the module's about/info page, a version file, or the platform's admin interface under module details).Affected if The installed version is lower than 23.05.15
-
Verify the file upload feature is enabledAccess the Rental Module configuration settings and check whether the upload functionality is turned on (look for upload/enable upload/active settings in the module admin panel).Affected if File upload is enabled in the module settings
-
Inspect the allowed file type configurationCheck the module's file upload settings for permitted file extensions or MIME types. Look for any allowlist or blocklist configuration related to uploads.Affected if Dangerous file types (such as .php, .asp, .jsp, .exe, .sh) are explicitly allowed or no restrictive allowlist is configured
-
Review web server configuration for uploaded file executionExamine the web server (Apache/Nginx/IIS) configuration and the upload directory permissions to determine if uploaded files in the upload path can be executed as scripts.Affected if The upload directory permits script execution or lacks proper handler restrictions
A user is affected if the Rental Module is installed with a version lower than 23.05.15 AND the upload feature is enabled, regardless of whether restrictive file type validation is configured.

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.
dbcve · scoped23.05.15
Update the Rental Module to version 23.05.15 or later; if patching is not possible, disable the upload functionality and implement file type allowlisting with server-side validation combined with web server configuration to prevent execution of uploaded files.
Rental Module version 23.05.15
- Upgrade the Rental Module to version 23.05.15 or later to resolve the unrestricted file upload vulnerability
- After upgrading, verify that file upload functionality is working correctly and that malicious file uploads are now blocked
