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 if Easy Property Listings plugin is installed
    Log in to WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and search for 'Easy Property Listings' or 'Realestateconnected Easy Property Listings' in the plugin list
    Affected if The plugin is not found in the installed plugins list - then they are NOT affected
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    In the WordPress admin Plugins page, locate Easy Property Listings and view the plugin details to find the version number displayed under the plugin name
    Affected if The displayed version number is less than 3.5.4 (for example 3.5.3, 3.5.2, etc.) - they ARE affected
  3. Verify plugin files exist via file system
    If filesystem access is available, check the plugin directory at wp-content/plugins/easy-property-listings/ and locate the main plugin file (usually easy-property-listings.php) to read the version defined in the plugin header comments
    Affected if The version defined in the plugin header comment is less than 3.5.4 - they ARE affected
  4. Check for unauthorized access indicators
    Review WordPress access logs for requests to plugin AJAX endpoints or admin-ajax.php that originate from unauthenticated IP addresses targeting easy-property-listings functionality
    Affected if Unauthenticated requests are observed hitting plugin-specific endpoints - this indicates active exploitation of the authorization flaw

The environment is affected if Easy Property Listings plugin is installed with a version number below 3.5.4, as this missing authorization vulnerability allows unauthenticated access to sensitive plugin functionality.
