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. Locate affiliate-toolkit plugin installation
    Check your WordPress plugins directory (wp-content/plugins/) for a folder named 'affiliate-toolkit' or similar variant like 'affiliate-toolkit-starter'. In WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Affiliate Toolkit' or 'Servit Affiliate Toolkit'.
    Affected if The affiliate-toolkit plugin is found installed on the WordPress site
  2. Identify installed version number
    In WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins, find the Affiliate Toolkit entry and read the version number displayed below the plugin name. Alternatively, check the main plugin PHP file header for 'Version:' tag.
    Affected if Version number is 3.7.3 or lower (any version through 3.7.3 is affected)
  3. Confirm admin authentication requirement
    Note that this CSRF vulnerability requires an authenticated administrator to have an active session. Check if any administrator accounts have recently logged in or have persistent sessions on the WordPress site.
    Affected if Authenticated administrator sessions exist or are possible on the site
  4. Verify affected version range
    Compare your installed version against the affected range: any version below 3.7.4 is vulnerable. Version 3.7.4 and above contain the fix.
    Affected if Installed version is less than 3.7.4

A site is affected if the affiliate-toolkit (Servit Affiliate Toolkit) plugin is installed with any version through 3.7.3 and has authenticated administrator access.
