Until an official fix is released, restrict subscriber-level user permissions where possible and monitor for suspicious deletion activity related to attachments. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges to users to limit exploitation potential.
Description
The Essential Real Estate plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to insufficient validation on the remove_property_attachment_ajax() function in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary attachments.
