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. Check installed plugin version
    Go to WordPress admin > Plugins > WPZOOM Beaver Builder Addons and note the version number displayed, or check the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/wpzoom-beaver-builder-addons/
    Affected if Version is lower than 1.3.5 (e.g., 1.3.4, 1.3.3, etc.)
  2. Verify plugin is active
    Confirm the WPZOOM Beaver Builder Addons plugin is enabled in the WordPress plugins list
    Affected if Plugin is active and vulnerable version is installed
  3. Identify user input modules
    In Beaver Builder editor, locate WPZOOM custom modules that accept user input (such as heading, text, button, or custom content modules from this plugin)
    Affected if Any WPZOOM module that allows text input is being used on a page
  4. Inspect stored data for unsanitized input
    Check the database tables (typically wp_posts or wp_postmeta) for content created with WPZOOM modules - look for raw HTML or script tags in the content fields
    Affected if Raw HTML/script tags appear stored in the database without encoding
  5. Review source code for output escaping
    Examine the plugin PHP files in /wp-content/plugins/wpzoom-beaver-builder-addons/ for missing esc_html, esc_attr, or wp_kses functions around user-supplied data when output to page
    Affected if Output functions do not include proper escaping for user input fields
