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.
-
Identify if Javo Core theme is installedCheck the WordPress wp-content/themes/ directory for a folder named 'javo-core' or 'javo', or view installed themes via WordPress admin under Appearance > ThemesAffected if The Javo Core theme folder exists in the WordPress themes directory
-
Determine the installed version of Javo Core themeOpen the theme's main style.css file located in the theme folder and locate the 'Version' header in the CSS comment block at the topAffected if The version number is 3.0.0.266 or lower (any version up to and including 3.0.0.266)
-
Locate potential code injection sinks in theme filesSearch all PHP files in the theme folder for dangerous functions: grep -r "eval(" for eval() calls, grep -r "preg_replace.*\/e for preg_replace with /e modifier, and grep for dynamic code execution patterns with user input variablesAffected if The theme contains eval(), preg_replace with /e modifier, or similar dynamic code execution functions that process unsanitized user-supplied input
-
Verify if theme is actively enabled on the siteCheck WordPress admin under Appearance > Themes to confirm if Javo Core is the currently active theme, or query the wp_options table for the 'template' or 'stylesheet' option valuesAffected if Javo Core theme is the active theme on the WordPress site
You are affected if Javo Core theme is installed, the version is 3.0.0.266 or lower, and the theme contains unsafe dynamic code execution patterns processing user input.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
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 dataUpdate Javo Core theme to the latest available version beyond 3.0.0.266. If no patched version is available, disable the theme and review code for unsafe eval(), preg_replace() with /e modifier, or unsanitized user input in dynamic code execution contexts.
