Report Title: WordPress Real Estate 7 Theme <= 3.3.4 - Abuse of Functionality  
Google Dork: inurl:/wp-content/themes/realestate-7/  
Research Date: 2023-02-10  
Researcher: FearZzZz [ https://fearzzzz.ru ]  
Component Vendor: Contempo Themes [ https://contempothemes.com ]  
Vulnerable Version: <= 3.3.4  
Component Link: https://themeforest.net/item/wp-pro-real-estate-7-responsive-real-estate-wordpress-theme/12473778  
CVSS Base Score: 7.2 (High)

OWASP Top 10: A04: 2021 – Insecure Design  
CWE: CWE-472  
CVE: TBA  
  
=================================================================================================  
  
#### [ Description: ]  
  
The Real Estate 7 theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Abuse of Functionality via the `ctyouremail` parameter in the `/includes/ajax-submit-favorites.php` and `/includes/ajax-submit-listings.php` files in versions up to, and including, v3.3.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to use implemented functions from the vulnerable service to invoke unintended/malicious outcomes.  
  
  
  
#### [ Impact: ]  
  
If a web application doesn't properly protect assumed-immutable values from modification in hidden form fields, parameters, cookies, or URLs, this can lead to modification of critical data. Improper validation of data that are user-controllable can lead to the application processing incorrect, and often malicious, input.
