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. Identify the installed plugin version
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins > Installed Plugins > Look for 'WebToffee Comments Import & Export' and check the version number displayed under the plugin name
    Affected if The version number displayed is lower than 2.5.0 or the version cannot be determined (plugin may be outdated)
  2. Verify the plugin is active
    In the same plugins list, confirm the WebToffee Comments Import & Export plugin shows as 'Active'
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is below 2.5.0
  3. Check for comment import/export menu access
    Look in the WordPress admin sidebar for a menu item related to comment import/export (typically under WooCommerce or a WebToffee menu section). Note which user roles can see this menu
    Affected if Users with roles other than Administrator (such as Editor, Shop Manager, or custom roles) can see or access the comment import/export functionality
  4. Test unauthorized role access
    Log in with a non-administrator user role (e.g., Editor or Shop Manager) and attempt to access the comment import/export page directly via URL or navigation menu
    Affected if A non-administrator user can successfully access and use the comment import/export features without being blocked or redirected
  5. Review user role capabilities
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Users > Roles (or use a role management plugin) to examine what capabilities are assigned to non-administrator roles related to comment management
    Affected if Non-administrator roles have capabilities that allow comment import/export operations (such as 'manage_woocommerce' or specific comment export permissions)

You are affected if the WebToffee Comments Import & Export plugin is active, the installed version is below 2.5.0, and non-administrator users can access or use the comment import/export functionality without proper authorization checks.
