Missing Authorization vulnerability in e-plugins Real Estate Pro real-estate-pro allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Real Estate Pro: from n/a through <= 2.1.5.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

This is a Missing Authorization (Broken Access Control) vulnerability in the e-plugins Real Estate Pro WordPress plugin. The plugin fails to properly enforce authorization checks on certain functionality, allowing unauthenticated or unauthorized users to access sensitive features or perform actions that should be restricted to privileged users due to incorrectly configured access control security levels.

MitigationImplement proper role-based access control (RBAC) and capability checks across all sensitive plugin functions, ensuring that authorization validation occurs before executing any privileged operations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm plugin installation and version
    Navigate to WordPress Admin > Plugins and locate 'Real Estate Pro' by e-plugins, or inspect the plugin header in wp-content/plugins/real-estate-pro/real-estate-pro.php to find the Version line
    Affected if The plugin is installed and running any version - authorization flaws may exist across all versions until patched
  2. Identify plugin AJAX endpoints
    Search the plugin directory for add_action calls registering hooks on 'wp_ajax_' or 'wp_ajax_nopriv_' actions, or examine any custom REST API endpoint registrations
    Affected if The plugin registers AJAX or REST endpoints that handle sensitive operations without capability checks
  3. Test unauthorized access to plugin functions
    Attempt to access suspected privileged plugin functions via direct URL or by submitting requests to admin-ajax.php with the plugin's action parameters while logged out or as a low-privilege user (subscriber)
    Affected if Requests succeed without proper authorization validation, indicating the vulnerability is present
  4. Review plugin capability enforcement
    Examine plugin source code for current_user_can() or similar authorization checks before executing sensitive operations in AJAX handlers, admin pages, or frontend submission forms
    Affected if No capability checks are found before privileged operations, or checks are incorrectly implemented with weak capabilities
  5. Check for exposed admin actions
    Inspect plugin files for functions handling data creation, modification, or deletion (such as property submissions, user management, or settings changes) and verify if these can be triggered without admin authentication
    Affected if Administrative actions are reachable without proper authentication or authorization validation

If the Real Estate Pro plugin is installed and its sensitive functions are accessible without proper authorization checks, the environment is affected by this CVE.
