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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check if PixelYourSite plugin is installedNavigate to WordPress Admin > Plugins and look for 'PixelYourSite' in the installed plugins list, or inspect the plugin directory at /wp-content/plugins/ for a folder named 'pixelyoursite' or similarAffected if The plugin is installed and active on the WordPress site
-
Identify the installed version of PixelYourSiteIn WordPress Admin > Plugins, find PixelYourSite and view the version number displayed beneath the plugin name, or read the 'readme.txt' or 'plugin.php' file in the plugin directory to find the 'Version' headerAffected if The installed version is 10.0.1.2 or any earlier version (e.g., 10.0.1.1, 10.0.0.x, etc.)
