Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in WPFunnels Pro <= 2.9.4 versions.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

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. Confirm WPFunnels Pro is installed
    In the WordPress admin dashboard, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and search for 'WPFunnels Pro' in the list of active plugins
    Affected if WPFunnels Pro appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Identify the installed version
    In the Plugins list, click on WPFunnels Pro to view the plugin details, or open the main plugin PHP file (usually wpfunnels-pro.php) and locate the version number in the file header comment
    Affected if version displayed is 2.9.4 or lower
  3. Verify the plugin is active
    In the WordPress Plugins list, confirm that WPFunnels Pro shows as 'Active' under the plugin status column
    Affected if plugin status is Active

The environment is affected if WPFunnels Pro is installed, active, and running version 2.9.4 or lower, since the vulnerability is unauthenticated and applies to all pages served by the vulnerable plugin version.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Check your environment

Paste your version and any relevant configuration and it will be compared against the affected criteria above. Do not include secrets or credentials.

AI-assisted, checked against the advisory. Informational, not a guarantee.

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.
