MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an authenticated account with subscriber-level access or above on a WordPress site running Real Estate Manager - Property Listing and Agent Management version ≤7.3; the plugin must be installed and active. Exploitation targets the wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax AJAX handler, which lacks any capability, nonce, or ownership check, and the 'before_price_text' value is stored via update_post_meta (not post_content), so wp_kses/unfiltered_html protections do not apply. What LIMITS exploitation: the attacker needs a valid low-privilege login (PR:L, so not fully unauthenticated), and script execution depends on a victim subsequently viewing the injected page (the scope-change impact lands on that viewer). |
| Impact | This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue rather than a critical one. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, base 6.4) reflects a network-reachable stored XSS requiring only subscriber-level authentication, with a scope change (S:C) because injected script executes in the browsers of other users/administrators who view the affected page. Impact is limited to C:L/I:L (session/token theft, limited content manipulation) with no availability impact. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or SSVC decision data was provided, and no public exploit is referenced - this is a Wordfence Threat Intelligence disclosure with source-code line references but no weaponized PoC. The notable aggravating factor called out in the description is a complete absence of capability, nonce, and ownership checks on the wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax handler, plus persistence via update_post_meta (bypassing the wp_kses/unfiltered_html filtering that normally protects post_content), which lowers the practical barrier to injection for any logged-in user. Overall a real, patch-worthy vulnerability but not an emergency: exploitation still requires a valid low-privilege account and a victim viewing the injected page. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker registers or obtains a subscriber-level account on a WordPress site running Real Estate Manager ≤7.3, then sends a crafted request to the unprotected wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax AJAX handler with a malicious 'before_price_text' value containing script. The payload is stored via update_post_meta and later rendered unescaped, so when an administrator or visitor opens the affected listing page the script executes in their session. No public PoC is referenced, though Wordfence provides the exact vulnerable source lines. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 30, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in the WordPress plugin Real Estate Manager - Property Listing and Agent Management affects all versions up to and including 7.3, allowing a low-privileged authenticated user (subscriber or above) to persist arbitrary JavaScript through the 'before_price_text' parameter that then executes in the browser of any visitor viewing the injected page. The flaw is compounded by the wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax AJAX handler having no capability, nonce, or ownership check, and because the payload is saved with update_post_meta rather than into post_content, the wp_kses filtering normally tied to the unfiltered_html capability never applies. Rated CVSS 6.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N), this is a genuine but moderate-priority issue; no public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch is identified in the available data for CVE-2026-93908, so remediation must prioritize compensating controls. The highest-confidence action is to deactivate and remove the Real Estate Manager - Property Listing and Agent Management plugin until a fixed release is published, accepting the loss of its property-listing functionality; alternatively, restrict which roles can exist on the site by eliminating or quarantining subscriber-level accounts, since the exploit requires only a valid low-privilege login (PR:L). Administrators can also block unauthenticated-to-low-privileged access to the admin-ajax.php action rem_create_pro_ajax at the WAF or reverse-proxy layer (e.g., matching the action parameter in POST bodies), which will break the vulnerable write path with the trade-off of also disabling legitimate property-creation via that endpoint. Because the payload is stored in post metadata rather than post content, standard post-content sanitizers will not catch it: audit the wp_postmeta table for unexpected HTML/script content in the before_price_text key and purge any hits. Finally, track the Wordfence advisory (https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/1b05171e-e27f-437b-b9a8-0636da7bee8d?source=cve) and the plugin's Trac changelog for a version above 7.3 and upgrade immediately once released.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a classic CWE-79 improper neutralization of input during web page generation (stored XSS) in a WordPress plugin. WordPress offers an AJAX surface via wp_ajax_ actions; the plugin registers wp_ajax_rem_create_pro_ajax, which in version 7.3 accepts the 'before_price_text' parameter without validating a nonce, checking user capabilities, or verifying ownership of the object being modified. The supplied value is persisted through update_post_meta(), which bypasses the post_content sanitization pipeline - specifically the wp_kses filtering that WordPress conditionally applies based on the unfiltered_html capability. As a result, low-privilege roles that would never be permitted to embed scripts in posts (subscribers and contributors) can still plant unsanitized markup in post metadata, which the plugin later renders without output escaping in its shortcode output (references point to core.functions.php line 178 and shortcodes.class.php lines 1705 and 1776 in the 7.3 tag). The CVSS vector's Scope:Changed reflects that the injected script executes in the context of a different security authority than the injecting user - the victim visitor - while C:L/I:L/A:N captures the limited confidentiality and integrity impact typical of XSS. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:rameez_iqbal:real_estate_manager_-_property_listing_and_agent_management:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms the affected component is the plugin published by rameez_iqbal, tracked as EUVD-2026-89683 in the ENISA EUVD database.

DescriptionCVE.org
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.
