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. Verify BookingPress plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and search for BookingPress. Alternatively, check the /wp-content/plugins/bookingpress-appointment-booking directory exists on the server.
    Affected if The BookingPress plugin directory exists and the plugin is active in WordPress.
  2. Check installed BookingPress version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate BookingPress. The version number is displayed below the plugin name. Alternatively, check the main plugin PHP file for the Version header comment.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.64 or lower.
  3. Confirm WordPress site exposes BookingPress to unauthenticated users
    Attempt to access common BookingPress endpoints (such as wp-json/bookingpress/v1/ or ajax handlers) without logging in. Use a browser or curl command: curl -I https://yoursite.com/wp-json/bookingpress/v1/
    Affected if The endpoints return data without requiring authentication (HTTP 200 responses without login cookies).
  4. Review access logs for BookingPress-related requests
    Examine web server access logs (Apache access_log, Nginx access.log) for unusual or批量 requests to bookingpress-related URLs, especially from unauthenticated IP addresses. Look for patterns like repeated GET requests to bookingpress endpoints.
    Affected if Log entries show excessive or anomalous requests to BookingPress endpoints from unauthenticated sources.

If BookingPress plugin version 1.0.64 or lower is installed and active, and its endpoints are accessible without authentication, the environment is likely affected by this vulnerability.
