dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm plugin installationIn WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Crmperks Wp Gravity Forms Salesforce' or 'Gravity Forms Salesforce' by Crmperks. Note if it is installed and activated.Affected if The plugin is installed and active in WordPress.

Common plugin directory paths include /wp-content/plugins/wp-gravityforms-salesforce/ or similar.Affected if The installed version is lower than 1.5.2.
-
Search for unsafe deserialization callsAccess the plugin files via FTP or file manager.
