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 if the wpspin Post/Page Copying Tool plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins, or inspect the wp-content/plugins directory for folders named 'postpage-import-export-with-custom-fields-taxonomies' or containing 'wpspin'
    Affected if The plugin appears in the list of installed plugins or its directory exists in wp-content/plugins/
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In WordPress Plugins page, click on the plugin to view its details, or open the main plugin PHP file and look for the version header comment (e.g., 'Version: x.x.x')
    Affected if The displayed version is 2.0.3 or any earlier version (versions through 2.0.3 are affected)
  3. Verify the plugin is active
    In WordPress admin > Plugins, confirm the plugin status shows 'Active' rather than 'Inactive' or 'Must-Use'
    Affected if The plugin is currently activated on the WordPress site
  4. Check if the plugin import functionality is accessible
    Look for the plugin menu item in the WordPress admin sidebar (often labeled Post/Page Copying Tool, Import, or similar) and confirm it is accessible to any user role with appropriate permissions
    Affected if The import/Post copying tool feature is exposed and accessible on the site frontend or backend
  5. Inspect for unexpected files or code injections
    Review wp-content/plugins/postpage-import-export-with-custom-fields-taxonomies/ for unknown .php files, or check recent modifications to plugin files via file system timestamps or version control
    Affected if Suspicious files exist in the plugin directory or plugin files have been recently modified outside of legitimate updates
