What is CVE-2026-96667?
CVE-2026-96667 is a high-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in rameez_iqbal Real Estate Manager – Property Listing and Agent Management, published on 10 Oct 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official 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.
Weakness: CWE-79
