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. Verify plugin installation and version
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and locate 'Woocommerce Book Price' in the installed plugins list. Check the version number displayed under the plugin name. Compare this version against the affected range (<= 1.3).
    Affected if The installed version is 1.3 or lower.
  2. Confirm plugin is active
    In the same Plugins page, verify that the Woocommerce Book Price plugin shows as 'Active' rather than 'Inactive' or 'Must-Use'.
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is 1.3 or lower.
  3. Identify subscriber-level users
    Go to WordPress admin > Users and review the user list. Check the 'Role' column for any users assigned the 'Subscriber' role. Note the count and usernames of these users.
    Affected if There exists at least one user with Subscriber role (or any role ranked below Administrator/Editor/Author) who could potentially access the vulnerable functionality.
  4. Locate file download functionality
    Inspect the plugin files (typically in wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-book-price/) for code handling file download requests, looking for functions that accept user-supplied file path parameters (such as file, path, download_file, or similar query parameters in GET/POST requests).
    Affected if The plugin contains file download functionality that accepts user-controlled path parameters without proper validation.

You are affected if the Woocommerce Book Price plugin version 1.3 or lower is installed and active, and your site has subscriber-level users who could access the vulnerable file download feature.
