Summary

The Real Estate Manager Pro plugin for WordPress up to version 12.8.6 is vulnerable to privilege escalation. The allow_attachment_actions() function has improper capability handling, which can treat a target user ID as a media attachment ID during user capability checks. This allows authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to edit an administrator account and escalate their privileges to Administrator when the targeted user ID matches the ID of an existing media attachment.

Risk Assessment

Privilege escalation to administrator by an authenticated low-privileged user.

Recommendation

Update the Real Estate Manager Pro plugin to the latest patched version.
