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.

    Find the COOKiES Consent Management module directory in your Drupal installation (typically in modules/contrib/ or modules/custom/) and open the cookies_consent.info.yml or cookies_consent.module file to read the version number
    Affected if The version listed is below 1.2.15 (for example, 1.2.14, 1.2.10, 1.1.x, etc.)
  2. Check module version via Composer
    If the module was installed via Composer, run 'composer show drupal/cookies_consent' or check your composer.lock file for the installed version of the cookies_consent package
    Affected if The installed version shown is lower than 1.2.15
  3. Verify module is enabled
    Log into Drupal admin panel and navigate to Extend (or modules list) to confirm the COOKiES Consent Management module is installed and enabled on your site
    Affected if The module is enabled and the version from steps 1 or 2 is below 1.2.15
