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. Confirm plugin installation
    Check if the Advanced Local Pickup for WooCommerce plugin is installed by looking for its directory in wp-content/plugins (typically named 'advanced-local-pickup-for-woocommerce' or similar) or by viewing the installed plugins in the WordPress admin under Plugins.
    Affected if The plugin is present in the WordPress installation
  2. Identify installed plugin version
    Access the WordPress admin panel, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and locate the Advanced Local Pickup for WooCommerce plugin to read its version number. Alternatively, check the main plugin PHP file (usually in the plugin directory) for the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block.
    Affected if The displayed version is below 1.6.2 (the fixed version) or if the version cannot be determined (older unversioned releases)
  3. Compare version against fixed release
    Compare the identified version number to 1.6.2. Versions below 1.6.2 are considered affected by this authorization vulnerability.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 1.6.2
  4. Review accessible endpoints (optional context)
    Since this is a missing authorization vulnerability and the specific endpoints are not detailed, inspect the plugin settings and any AJAX or REST API endpoints it registers. Look for actions that should require authentication (such as those in admin-ajax.php) and test whether they execute without a valid nonce or proper user capability checks.
    Affected if The plugin allows unauthenticated or low-privilege users to access functionality that should require higher privileges or valid nonces
