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.
-
Verify the plugin is installedNavigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and look for 'Duplicate Page and Post' by Falcon Solutions. Alternatively, check the wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'duplicate-page-post' or similar.Affected if The plugin is present in the WordPress installation
-
Check the installed versionIn WordPress admin > Plugins, click on the plugin details to view the installed version number. Compare it against the affected range (all versions <=1.0).Affected if The installed version is 1.0 or lower, or if no version number is displayed and the plugin is from Falcon Solutions
-
Confirm the plugin is activeIn WordPress admin > Plugins, verify whether 'Duplicate Page and Post' shows as 'Active' under the plugin status.Affected if The plugin is active and thus capable of handling requests that could trigger the SQL injection
-
Review access to the vulnerable functionalityThe vulnerability allows unauthenticated SQL injection. Check if the WordPress site allows public-facing requests to plugin endpoints. No specific authentication should be required for exploitation.Affected if The site accepts unauthenticated requests to plugin functionality, which is the default state for this vulnerability

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataSanitize and validate all user-supplied input before using it in SQL queries. Replace dynamic SQL construction with parameterized queries (prepared statements). If a patched version exists, upgrade to it; otherwise, locate the vulnerable code and refactor to use $wpdb->prepare() or equivalent parameterized methods.
