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 Campcodes Online Recruitment Management System installationIdentify the application by locating its source files, typically in the web root directory.

-
Verify the vulnerable ajax.php file existsLocate the file at /admin/ajax.php within the web application directory. This file handles administrative AJAX requests including the delete_vacancy action.Affected if The file admin/ajax.php exists in the webroot
-
Confirm the delete_vacancy action is definedExamine the source code of admin/ajax.php and search for the case 'delete_vacancy' or function handling the delete_vacancy action. Verify that it accepts and processes an ID parameter.Affected if The delete_vacancy action handler is present in ajax.php and processes an ID parameter without parameterized queries
-
