Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The 3D Photo Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'des[]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The 3D Photo Gallery WordPress plugin (versions up to 1.3) is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'des[]' parameter. Authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access can inject malicious JavaScript because the plugin fails to sanitize user input and properly escape output when rendering the parameter value.

MitigationUpdate to the latest patched version of the plugin. If no patch is available, remove the plugin. For interim mitigation, ensure users do not have Subscriber-level access and implement Web Application Firewall rules to block XSS payloads in the affected parameter.

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 plugin installation
    Locate the 3D Photo Gallery plugin files in your WordPress plugins directory and confirm the plugin is active
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active in WordPress
  2. Identify installed version
    Check the plugin header file (typically main php file) for the Version declaration or check via WordPress admin plugins list
    Affected if The version is 1.3 or lower
  3. Check for Subscriber role users
    Navigate to Users > All Users in WordPress admin and review user accounts for any with Subscriber role, or query the wp_users and wp_usermeta tables directly
    Affected if Any user account has Subscriber-level access or higher
  4. Inspect stored des[] parameter data
    Query the WordPress database (typically wp_postmeta table) for meta_key values containing 'des' or the plugin's custom post type meta, or inspect browser developer tools when viewing gallery pages for unsanitized output
    Affected if The 'des[]' parameter values are stored and rendered without proper escaping (visible script tags in output)

A user is affected if the 3D Photo Gallery plugin version 1.3 or lower is installed and active with any Subscriber-level user account able to access the vulnerable des[] parameter input.

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 1.3
Interim mitigation

Update to the latest patched version of the plugin. If no patch is available, remove the plugin. For interim mitigation, ensure users do not have Subscriber-level access and implement Web Application Firewall rules to block XSS payloads in the affected parameter.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence
