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 the mmrs151 Daily Prayer Time plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'mmrs151 Daily Prayer Time' in the list of active and inactive plugins.
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list regardless of activation status.
  2. Determine the installed plugin version
    In the plugins list, locate the mmrs151 Daily Prayer Time entry. Click on the plugin name or view the plugin details to find the version number displayed (typically displayed below the plugin name).
    Affected if The displayed version number is 2023.10.13 or earlier.
  3. Check plugin activity status
    In the WordPress plugins admin page, verify whether mmrs151 Daily Prayer Time shows as 'Active' or 'Inactive' under the plugin status column.
    Affected if The plugin is currently activated, as the XSS executes when the vulnerable output is rendered on pages viewed by users.
  4. Inspect plugin settings for user-supplied input
    Access the plugin settings page (usually under Settings or a dedicated menu item named 'Daily Prayer Time' or similar). Identify any input fields where users can submit or configure data such as location names, mosque names, or custom text.
    Affected if The plugin contains input fields that accept user-supplied text and save this data for later display on the website.
  5. Review stored data in plugin database tables
    Access the WordPress database via phpMyAdmin or command line. Look for tables prefixed with wp_ that may contain mmrs151 or prayer_time related data. Query for any stored values that might contain injected script tags.
    Affected if The database contains entries with unescaped HTML or script tags in fields related to the plugin's configurable parameters.

You are affected if the mmrs151 Daily Prayer Time plugin is installed at version 2023.10.13 or earlier and is active, as the stored XSS vulnerability exists in how the plugin renders unsanitized user input on webpages.
