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
Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File vulnerability in Solid Plugins Solid Affiliate.This issue affects Solid Affiliate: from n/a through 1.9.1.

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 · moderate confidence

This is an insertion of sensitive information into log file vulnerability in the Solid Affiliate plugin. The plugin is writing sensitive data (potentially user credentials, PII, or authentication tokens) to log files without proper sanitization or redaction, which could expose this information to unauthorized parties with access to the logs.

MitigationIdentify and remediate the code paths where sensitive data is being logged by implementing proper redaction or by avoiding logging sensitive information altogether. Ensure logs are stored securely with restricted access.

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. Identify Solid Affiliate plugin installation
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard under Plugins, or check the wp-content/plugins directory for a solid-affiliate folder. Note the installed version number displayed.
    Affected if Plugin is installed and version is known
  2. Compare installed version to affected releases
    Obtain the exact version number from the plugin and cross-reference with any official vulnerability advisory. If your version falls within an affected range listed in official sources, the environment may be vulnerable.
    Affected if Installed version matches an affected release
  3. Check if plugin logging is enabled
    Access the Solid Affiliate plugin settings in WordPress admin panel. Look for options labeled Debug Logging, Error Logging, Audit Trail, or similar features that control logging behavior. Determine if logging is turned on.
    Affected if Logging or debug features are enabled in plugin settings
  4. Inspect log files for unsanitized sensitive data
    Locate log files - common paths include wp-content/debug.log, wp-content/logs/, or plugin-specific log directories. Open and examine the logs, searching for patterns that may expose credentials, passwords, API keys, tokens, PII, or other sensitive information written in plain text.
    Affected if Log files contain unredacted sensitive information such as credentials, tokens, or PII

Your environment is affected if Solid Affiliate plugin is installed with logging enabled and its log files contain unredacted sensitive data.
