Stored XSS in Real Estate Manager WordPress Plugin

Publication date: 2026-10-10

Last updated on: 2026-10-10

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Real Estate Manager – Property Listing and Agent Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'first_name' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The reCAPTCHA check is trivially bypassed by omitting the g-recaptcha-response parameter entirely, since validation only runs when that parameter is present.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) flaw in the Real Estate Manager WordPress plugin. It allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts via the 'first_name' parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The injected scripts execute when users access affected pages. Additionally, the reCAPTCHA protection can be bypassed by omitting the required parameter.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability involves Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the Real Estate Manager WordPress plugin. To detect it, inspect WordPress sites using the plugin versions up to 7.3 for unsanitized input in the 'first_name' parameter or agent registration fields. Check for arbitrary script execution in pages or admin areas.

Impact Analysis

Attackers could steal user sessions, deface websites, or redirect visitors to malicious sites. Unauthenticated users might gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or perform actions on behalf of other users. The reCAPTCHA bypass could allow automated exploitation of the XSS flaw.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or modification, violating GDPR's integrity and confidentiality principles. For HIPAA, it may expose protected health information if user accounts are compromised. Both standards require safeguards against such breaches.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the Real Estate Manager plugin to version 7.4 or later to address the vulnerabilities. Remove or disable the plugin if updates are unavailable. Review user inputs for sanitization and ensure reCAPTCHA validation is enforced on all forms.
