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 Ohio Extra theme is installed
    Navigate to Appearance > Themes in WordPress admin, or check /wp-content/themes/ directory for the ohio folder
    Affected if Ohio Extra theme is present in the WordPress installation
  2. Identify installed theme version

    Affected if The version line shows a number equal to or lower than 3.4.7
  3. Cross-check version via WordPress admin
    In WordPress admin, go to Appearance > Themes and hover over the Ohio Extra theme card to display the version number
    Affected if Displayed version is 3.4.7 or any version below it
  4. Review theme files for suspicious code patterns
    Search theme PHP files for dynamic code execution functions (eval, base64_decode, preg_replace with /e modifier, create_function) used with user-supplied input, particularly in files related to customizer, elementor widgets, or dynamic styling
    Affected if Such patterns exist and accept unsanitized input from request parameters
