- CakePHP 2.x
Open lib/Cake/VERSION.txt file, the version number is at bottom of file.
- CakePHP 3.x
Open vendor/cakephp/cakephp/VERSION.txt file, the version number is at bottom of file.
And if you want to get version in code, we can use following code

Configure::version() |
Under the Hood
The Configure class is defined at lib/Cake/Core/Configuration.php file, reading the code we will find it's actually reading the VERSION.txt file (the file we mentioned above) to find out current version as well.
