Description
The Easy Property Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data via the epl_search_user AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.26, due to a missing capability check on the epl_search_user() function, which checks only a nonce that is exposed to every logged-in user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to search the site's users and retrieve their login names, user IDs and display names.
