Complicated topic, but according to the nerdy Eurocentric definition:

Dragon = 4 limbs + 2 wings (6 total)

Wyvern = 2 legs + 2 wings (4 total)

Wyrm = 0 limbs/wings (Still very large, like the Tremors creatures or Sand Worms)

Technically "dragons" could have anywhere from 0 to hundreds or thousands of limbs/wings, and may or may not have the ability to fly/breathe fire/speak/possess magic/etc. depending on location, culture, and point in time.
