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 · high confidence

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 plugin version
    Locate the plugin's main file (powerpack-lite-beaver-builder/powerpack.php) or readme.txt and look for the Version header or changelog entry. In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and find PowerPack Lite for Beaver Builder to see its version number.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.3.0.3 or lower, meaning it is before the patched version 1.3.0.4.
  2. Verify plugin is active
    In WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins and confirm whether PowerPack Lite for Beaver Builder is currently activated.
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is in the affected range, exposing the vulnerability.
  3. Identify vulnerable code patterns
    If file access is available, examine PHP files in the plugin directory for include, include_once, require, or require_once statements that use unsanitized variables (such as $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST) directly in the path. Look for patterns like 'include($_REQUEST["..."]' without validation functions.
    Affected if The plugin contains include/require statements using user input without proper validation, confirming the vulnerable code is present.
  4. Check for module exposure
    The RFI vulnerability typically affects frontend-facing functionality. If accessible, review the Beaver Builder page builder settings where PowerPack modules are used, as the vulnerable code likely executes when certain module parameters are submitted.
    Affected if PowerPack modules that use the vulnerable include/require logic are accessible to users, creating an exploitable attack surface.

You are affected if PowerPack Lite for Beaver Builder is installed at version 1.3.0.3 or below AND the plugin is active, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary remote files via improper validation in include/require statements.
