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.
-
Identify if Woopy theme is installedCheck for the presence of the AncoraThemes Woopy theme in your WordPress installation's wp-content/themes directory. Look for a folder named 'woopy' or similar.Affected if The Woopy theme by AncoraThemes is present in the themes directory
-
Determine the installed theme versionLocate the theme's style.css file within the woopy theme folder and check the 'Version:' header in the CSS file comments, or check any version.php file if present.Affected if The version cannot be verified as patched or is within an unknown affected range
-
Identify PHP files with dynamic file inclusionSearch the theme's PHP files for include, require, include_once, or require_once statements that use variables in the file path (e.g., include($file), require($_GET['path'])) without proper sanitization.Affected if Dynamic file inclusion code using unsanitized user input is found in theme PHP files
-
Check for vulnerable file parameter handlingExamine the identified inclusion code to determine if file path parameters are derived from user-supplied input (GET/POST parameters) without validation or whitelist filtering.Affected if File inclusion parameters accept direct user input without validation or whitelist-based filtering
A user is affected if the AncoraThemes Woopy theme is installed and contains dynamic file inclusion code that uses unsanitized user input in include/require statements.

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 dataImplement strict input validation and whitelist-based filtering for file inclusion paths; upgrade to the latest version if a patch is available, or refactor the code to use static includes instead of dynamic file paths.
