Realtyna WPL default API credentials permit executable uploads
Realtyna Organic IDX plugin + WPL Real Estate before 5.3.0 does not validate uploaded file types, while its API is enabled by default and accepts hardcoded credentials shared across installations. An unauthenticated attacker can use those known credentials to upload arbitrary PHP and execute it through the web server, resulting in full site compromise. The CNA record does not disclose the API endpoint, credential values, upload parameters or receiving function.

Technical description
The Realtyna Organic IDX plugin + WPL Real Estate WordPress plugin before 5.3.0 does not validate the type of uploaded files, and its file upload functionality is gated only by an API that is enabled by default and authenticated with hardcoded credentials shipped identically across all installations. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary PHP files and achieve remote code execution.
