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.
-
Verify Simple Business Directory Pro is installedIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and search for 'Simple Business Directory Pro', or check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for the plugin folderAffected if Plugin is present in the WordPress installation
-
Identify the installed plugin versionIn WordPress admin, click on the plugin name to view details and note the version number, or check the main plugin PHP file for the 'Version' header in the plugin commentsAffected if Version is unknown or older than the patched release
-
Determine if the plugin exposes search or filter functionality publiclyVisit pages with the plugin shortcode and identify any search fields, filter dropdowns, or URL parameters used by the plugin. Check if these are accessible to unauthenticated visitorsAffected if Public-facing pages using the plugin accept user input via query parameters or form submissions
-
Inspect database query code for unsanitized inputExamine the plugin source code, specifically files handling search or filter requests. Look for direct SQL queries where user input from $_GET, $_POST, or request parameters is concatenated or inserted without $wpdb->prepare() or escaping functionsAffected if Database queries contain user input that is not sanitized, parameterized, or using prepared statements
If Simple Business Directory Pro is installed and its public-facing search or filter features accept unsanitized user input that reaches database queries, the environment is affected by this SQL injection vulnerability.

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 dataUpgrade to the latest version of Simple Business Directory Pro which contains the patched code. If no patch is available, disable the plugin until a fix is released. Alternatively, implement input validation and use prepared statements for all database queries.
