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.
-
Confirm ShopMagic plugin is installedCheck the WordPress plugins directory for the shopmagic folder, or look for ShopMagic in the WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed PluginsAffected if The ShopMagic plugin for WooCommerce is present in the WordPress installation
-
Identify installed ShopMagic versionCheck the main plugin file (usually shopmagic.php) in wp-content/plugins/shopmagic/ for the version header comment, or view the plugin in WordPress admin which displays the installed versionAffected if Unable to determine the version or version is earlier than the patched release
-
Verify authorization on ShopMagic admin actionsAttempt to access ShopMagic-specific admin pages and functions (such as automation lists, email templates, or settings) using a user account WITHOUT ShopMagic-specific capabilities (e.g., a subscriber-level user). Use browser dev tools or a tool like curl to inspect HTTP responses.Affected if Sensitive ShopMagic functionality is accessible or returns success responses without proper user capability verification
-
Check for nonce and capability validation in plugin codeExamine ShopMagic plugin PHP files for missing current_user_can() or wp_verify_nonce() calls before sensitive operations, particularly in AJAX handlers and form processing files within the plugin directoryAffected if Code review reveals endpoints or functions that process sensitive data without verifying user permissions or validating nonces
-
Test direct access to ShopMagic AJAX endpointsUse curl or a similar tool to send requests to ShopMagic AJAX endpoints (typically under wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=shopmagic_*) without authentication or with a low-privilege user session, observing if actions executeAffected if AJAX actions execute successfully or return expected data without requiring proper user authorization
A WordPress environment with ShopMagic installed is affected if the plugin version lacks the authorization fix AND sensitive operations are accessible without proper user capability checks.

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 ShopMagic to the latest version and audit all endpoints/functions for proper capability checks and authorization validation. Implement nonce verification and user permission checks on all sensitive operations.
