Description
The Real Estate Manager – Property Listing and Agent Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'before_price_text' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The vulnerability is further enabled by the absence of any capability, nonce, or ownership check on the wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax handler, and because the value is persisted via update_post_meta rather than post_content, the wp_kses filtering tied to the unfiltered_html capability does not apply.

Impact

The Real Estate Manager plugin for WordPress permits an authenticated user with subscriber or higher privileges to supply arbitrary content to the before_price_text parameter via a vulnerable Ajax handler. The handler and its storage process lack capability checks, nonce verification, and output escaping; the value is persisted as post meta without wp_kses filtering, enabling malicious JavaScript injection. When a page displays this meta value, the script executes in any visitor’s browser, giving attackers client‑side code execution that can steal data, hijack sessions, or deface the site. The flaw corresponds to CWE‑79.

Affected Systems

All installations of the Real Estate Manager – Property Listing and Agent Management plugin authored by Rameez Iqbal running version 7.3 or earlier are affected. No later versions have been reported vulnerable. The plugin is distributed via the WordPress plugin repository and is deployed on WordPress sites that rely on its real‑estate listing functionality.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS base score of 6.4 the vulnerability is considered moderate to high severity. The EPSS score is not available and it is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, indicating no widely known exploitation yet. Nevertheless, exploitation requires only authenticated access, and the Ajax endpoint’s lack of capability or nonce checks makes it easy for any user with subscriber‑level or higher privileges – or a compromised account – to inject malicious scripts. Because the injected script runs in the context of any visitor to the site, the risk extends to end users, making the issue high‑priority for remediation.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Real Estate Manager plugin to the latest release that includes the XSS fix; if no update is available, apply the vendor's patch for the before_price_text parameter.
  • Restrict the wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax endpoint by adding capability and nonce checks so that only administrators can execute it, blocking lower‑privilege users from injecting content.
  • Sanitize or remove existing before_price_text meta values that contain script tags; run a cleanup script that applies wp_kses to all stored values or delete them if they are unsafe.
  • As a temporary measure, wrap the before_price_text value in wp_kses before saving to ensure only permitted tags are stored, preventing unexpected script execution.
