CVE-2026-15142

Real Estate Manager Pro <= 12.8.6 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Privilege Escalation via 'user_has_cap' Filter ID Collision

Published Aug 15, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The Real Estate Manager Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 12.8.6. This is due to improper capability handling in the allow_attachment_actions() function, which can treat a target user ID as a media attachment ID during user capability checks. This makes it possible for 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.
