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 Slider Revolution plugin installation
    Locate the Slider Revolution plugin in your WordPress installation under wp-content/plugins/revslider or check via WordPress admin plugin list
    Affected if Plugin is present in the environment
  2. Identify installed version number
    Open the main plugin file (revslider.php) and locate the version constant, or check the plugin header in wp-content/plugins/revslider/revslider.php
    Affected if Version number returned is below 6.7.0
  3. Compare version against affected range
    Parse the version number found (e.g., 6.6.11, 6.6.0, 6.5.0) and compare mathematically to 6.7.0
    Affected if Any version lower than 6.7.0 (e.g., 6.6.x, 6.5.x, 6.0.x) indicates the missing authorization vulnerability is present
  4. Audit admin access to plugin functionality
    Review user role permissions and access logs for the revslider admin endpoints, check for API calls or admin actions originating from unauthenticated or unauthorized user accounts
    Affected if Unauthenticated or low-privilege users can access plugin admin functions that should require authentication

Environment is affected if Slider Revolution version is installed and the version is below 6.7.0, exposing admin functionality without proper authorization controls.
