HIGH CVE-2026-96667 Deferred

Real Estate Manager – Property Listing and Agent Management: Cross-site scripting

An unauthenticated registrant can place a stored script payload in first_name. The CAPTCHA check only runs when g-recaptcha-response is present, so omitting that field avoids the check. The saved name is later rendered without sufficient escaping; the export does not identify the victim page. Affected versions: <= 7.3. No fixed release is confirmed; the official changelog lookup did not provide verifiable fixed-version evidence.

CWE-79 — Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

This CVE was published Oct 10, 2026 and is one of 10 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

No fixed release is confirmed; the official changelog lookup did not provide verifiable fixed-version evidence. Disable the affected feature or deactivate the component until a confirmed fix is available. Application-level remediation: Require successful CAPTCHA verification independently of whether the client supplies its field, and escape first-name output for its actual rendering context.

No confirmed safe version is listed. Consider a vendor-supported patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality while you assess the risk.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.

Technical 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.
