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 Savyour Affiliate Partner plugin is installedIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Savyour Affiliate Partner' or check the plugins directory for /wp-content/plugins/savyour-affiliate-partner/Affected if The plugin is installed and active
-
Check installed plugin versionIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, find Savyour Affiliate Partner, and note the version number displayed. Alternatively, check /wp-content/plugins/savyour-affiliate-partner/readme.txt for the Version: fieldAffected if Version is 2.1.4 or lower, or if the version cannot be determined (plugin may be outdated)
-
Identify forms that handle state-changing actionsReview the plugin settings pages in WP admin where administrators can submit or modify data. Look for forms that save affiliate settings, partner configurations, or similar input fieldsAffected if The plugin has administrator-accessible forms that accept user input and store it in the database
-
Inspect form submissions for CSRF protectionView the page source of plugin admin forms. Check if each form includes a nonce field or anti-CSRF token. In the plugin source files (PHP), locate form handling code and verify if wp_nonce_field() or check_admin_referer() is used before processing form dataAffected if Forms lack CSRF token validation (no nonce field present in HTML and no nonce verification in PHP handler)
-
Check stored data for malicious scriptsIn WordPress database (wp_posts, wp_options, or plugin-specific tables), query for any saved affiliate/partner data containing script tags, iframe tags, or javascript: URIs. Use: SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_value LIKE '%<script%'Affected if Stored XSS payloads exist in plugin-related database entries
You are affected if the Savyour Affiliate Partner plugin is installed at version 2.1.4 or lower and its admin forms lack CSRF token validation, allowing potential stored XSS injection.
