Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the GiveWP WordPress plugin allows attackers to trick authenticated administrators into performing unintended actions, such as modifying donation settings or disbursing funds, by forging HTTP requests.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (WordPress nonces) on all state-changing forms and AJAX actions, and verify these tokens on submission. Additionally, configure SameSite cookie attributes and implement Referer header validation.

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. Confirm GiveWP plugin is installed
    Check the WordPress plugins directory for the give folder, or query the wp_options table for 'active_plugins' to see if GiveWP is listed among active plugins.
    Affected if GiveWP plugin is active on the WordPress site.
  2. Identify GiveWP version
    Check the main plugin file (givewp.php or similar) in wp-content/plugins/give/ for the Version header comment, or look in the WordPress plugin repository metadata.
    Affected if The installed version matches or falls within the affected version range of the CVE.
  3. Verify nonce presence in donation forms
    Inspect key form files in the GiveWP plugin (such as donation forms, settings forms, and fund disbursement forms) and search for the presence of wp_nonce_field() or wp_create_nonce() function calls within these form definitions.
    Affected if The forms handling donation settings or fund disbursement lack nonce field generation.
  4. Verify nonce validation on form processing
    Examine the PHP files that process form submissions (found in the includes directory) and check if they call wp_verify_nonce() or check_admin_referer() to validate the nonce before processing state-changing requests.
    Affected if Form processing handlers do not perform nonce verification.
  5. Check AJAX action nonce verification
    Review AJAX handlers in GiveWP (typically in includes/admin/class-ajax.php or similar) and verify that each admin-facing AJAX action calls wp_verify_nonce() or check_ajax_referer() before executing.
    Affected if AJAX actions that modify donation settings or disburse funds lack nonce validation.

A site is affected if GiveWP is installed and the plugin's forms or AJAX handlers processing administrative actions lack nonce verification, allowing attackers to forge requests on behalf of authenticated administrators.
